Peggy, we are so deeply saddened to hear about Lovaughn and our prayers are with you and your entire family. I will always be so very grateful to both you and Lovaughn. He hired me into the industry that I eventually grew into and I will be forever thankful to him and always remember to pass something down and help others because of the help he gave to me when I was young. God bless and I hope to talk to you in the very near future.
