Eleanor and family, Jim and I were saddened to hear of Lawtons passing. What a wonderful man. Seldom do we meet someone as kind, and devoted to helping others as he was. You both have been an inspiration to us. What the world would be like if we all could mirror Lawton and yourself. Jim and Gail Sparks

Our thoughts and prayers are with y'all right now. Lawton was a great christian man. I enjoyed the times we shared especially when he coached softball at MHBC. Look forward to seeing him again one day. Ron Smith

Dear Ms. Eleanor and Family, Lawton was a fine christian man. He will be missed. Saw him not that long ago at St. Vincents. He was still volunteering then. I will always cherish some advice he gave me when I was going through a difficult time back at MHBC. So glad we got to know him. Carmelita Smith

The world lost an amazing father, husband, and grandfather but Heaven has gained an amazing individual. I know he will be missed by his loving family and friends.
