Bobby, Marilyn, and family,
Rosie and I are so very sorry for you loss. Slade was a wonderful man. We are lifting you up in prayer during this difficult time.
I will always remember our time riding together when Slade had to chase down my horse Trouble after knocking me off riding under a branch, and helping Shadow and I when we were both covered in yellow jackets in Hurtsboro. He was alway the first to act.
I know how much you will miss him.
May almighty God comfort you as you grieve.
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life.
“The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;”

I would like to express my sincere condolences to Slade's family as I know he will be forever missed.В I haven't seen or spoken with Slade since our senior year in high school and it is with great sorrow and regret that I am sending this message.
Slade and I played high school football together and he was the best right guard anyone could ask to play beside.В During our senior year, he played the entire season with a separated shoulder which was a testament to his toughness.В More importantly, he was a great friend.В We had many great conversations and through those conversations and his actions, he was able toВ show me what a caring, compassionate, and loyal friend can be.В There is nothing he wouldn't do for his friends.В The only thing he would not do for his friendsВ is waiver his support for his college football team.В I was a UGA fan and I had to hear about how great Auburn was.В A lot.
I regret not staying in touch because Slade is a special person who has love in his heart, an ear to listen, and will carry you in your time of need.В I know his gifts will serve him very well in heaven.В I missed a great opportunity to stay in touch over the years, but I am so glad I had the privilege to know him.В
I am sorry for the pain he has endured and the pain his family and friends are going through now, butВ he is a great War Eagle, an amazing person, and resting peacefully now.

Many years ago I told Slade how I missed having horses. Next thing I knew he and Julie pulled in my driveway with horse trailer in tow. Slade jumped out and unloaded the tallest horse I had ever seen. I loved that fine animal. Slade’s kindness will never be forgotten. His memory will be forever in our hearts. Julie called him Sladie, so I did too. They have spent many midnight hours riding the country roads near here this past year. I was always so glad to see him.
