  9. Our sincere prayers, sympathy, and condolences are with the family during this time of grief and loss. Cherish the fond memories you have of “ Poncho”. Take consolation in knowing he has been Blessed, Healed, Delivered, and Set Free. The Bible provides us words of comfort and understanding when our loved one makes their transition from this life to their eternal rest in first Thessalonians chapter four verses 13-18.

  14. God keep your loving arms around my sister & family. We loved our “Poncho” He will be deeply & greatly missed. A wonderful loving husband to my sister, superhero of a father to his children & a friend to many that cherished him dearly! Rest in heaven my brother.

  15. My deepest condolences to your family and you, Brenda. Poncho had the most vibrant smile and I’ve never seen him without it. He was a regular in my mother’s home and a friend to our family. Take comfort in knowing that the angels rejoiced upon his arrival. He will be missed dearly.

  16. To my cousin, I have been dealing with the news of your passing. The last time we met in late October, we talked about you and Brenda moving to North Carolina. All of these memories of us, Cousin Sharon, Donnie, David, Ollie, and Alice, having a mischievous time in Helena, Arkansas, during the summer months keep “flashing” in my mind. I have always had much respect for you as my cousin and as a man. You always had a smile on your face and was a “given” person. R.I.P. Poncho, you are in good hands now. You will always be in my heart and soul.

    Love,
    Michael Townes Sr.
