Condolence: Where do I even start? First I have to say reading the obituary, now I know where Aunt Kathleen got all her children's names:) I never knew everyone's full names. I have too many memories to post, I could write a book, we all could. But I will share some of the ones that come to mind often. Uncle Golden and Aunt Vina were always there. For my birthdays, for my high school graduation, anything special and they were there. My favorite memories are of his prayers over the reunions because he got to witness to his whole family and you could see the passion for saving our souls and the grace of God's love in every word he said. I often wonder where we would all be without Uncle Golden's leadership. I bet it was such a beautiful thing to him as each of his siblings grew to know Christmas and became Christians. He was an educator of everything Biblical. He used to come to our house when I was a kid and have meetings with the Jehovas Witnesses and he would get so heated trying to show them the errors of their ways. I actually picked up quite a bit of knowledge just walking through the kitchen in those times even though at the time I was too young to know it. He used to always have those little Heaven and he'll comic books all over the dash of his truck and I loved reading those things. Scared me straight more than anything...lol I used to be fascinated at how he could walk holding on to the truck even though he was paralyzed. And even at the last reunion I saw him at, I saw him lift his leg and I thought for sure it was a miracle...but he explained to me that he had always had a little movement in them. I remember I was about to jump for joy because I thought his faith in believing he would one day walk again was so strong that it was about to happen. The last reunion I was at I was so heart broken to know that he couldn'the make the journey to be there. I knew that it would take something horrible to keep him away from there... This man was as my brother said earlier, the cornerstone of the family in so so many ways. He was such an amazing man and you can see it in all of us. He left his mark. And seeing how instead of shedding tears for him, we are all so joyous for him because we know exactly where he's going!! And that he was excited to go! If you haven'the seen Smileys video on Facebook, I would go and watch it now!! I think above all, my best memories are of going to his place where he bought that old hotel and playing in the strip mines all day with all my cousins and begging our parents to not make us go home. But then we got to sleep in that scary old place which was so worth it to get up in the morning and go do it all over again. We would always have a never ending stack of hot dogs to roast on the fire and marshmallows. The adults would be out there to the weend hours of the morning just laughing and carrying on. I remember on one of our trips down, I stood up in the car and when mom yelled at me to sit down, I did and sat on a huge furry bumble bee. When we got to the house Aunt Vina put a big onion on it and told me that would heal it right up. I am sure I was off playing within minutes. So I'll end this by just saying Praise God for all his Grace and for letting us have Uncle Golden for so many years after his fall. I can't imagine a world without him in it. Love to all of my family out there...

Condolence From: Junior Mullins
Condolence: There's so many memories,I could go on for hours with the things I remember about him,as we all can.He was such a part of all our lives.The spiritual cornerstone of the family I guess would be my best way to describe him.He led all our prayers anytime one was needed,and was behind the scenes prayin for each n every one he knew needed praying for.,He would counsel anyone who needed to talk and try his best to lead them to the lord.My favorite thing about him was he was a wheeler n dealer.A hoarder of anything automotive or antique.He loved the good ol days and still had the morality and ways of life as the old times.He would always help a person with no home,he'd offer a meal as soon as you walked in,honestly he's that guy who'd give someone the shirt off his back if it helped them.When he saw that I had the tradin bug as I got to drivin age,he would stop often to check up on my dealins and ask me "whats on the swap shop today" as he got out of his car chuckling,Amazed by the amount of cars I was swappin around all the time.He was always intrigued at the younger generations methods of making a buck,or ways of finding the deals and using computers to sell stuff or do research.I had as much fun teaching him new ways,as he had telling me the old.It was always a good time visiting with him.Never a dull moment.After parting ways you always felt like you'd learned something or had a touch of his godly cheer rubbed off on you..I'll never forget all the times being a young kid and sittin around the elders,hearing them talk about their elders.In disbelief over "so an so" passin away,and saying "well I guess we are the old folks now".But here I am in that spot , hearing about the older generations passings away and my how you realize time flys.We always think there's going to be more time,i wish that were so.Because i will really miss the relationship i had with uncle golden,.Last I talked to him was 3 years back at a reunion,so i am glad smiley posted a vid to capture his later moments for those who couldn't be right there to say our goodbyes.It gave me joy and peace knowing he was ready to meet gods embrace right up to the end and to know he will finally get his rewards for being the good soldier.I only hope to once again meet him and all the other loved ones who've passed away on the other side.rest in peace uncle golden..

Condolence: My heart is heavy for all of you but I know that he is walking along side the Lord free of crutches, braces and pain. I'm sure he is up there having a good old time with my dad. He was an incredible inspiration to all who knew him, never allowing his disability to stand in his way. I pray for comfort during this sad time. I love you all, please give him a kiss for me and tell him I love him.

Condolence: Got one of my many nick names from him..He called me Skunky ~ Although I have not seen him for a few years that last time I saw him he was smiling ~ and every conversation with him included God! I have fond memories spending allot of weekends at his house exploring strip mines ~ and a huge old Hotel in Coshocton that they had purchased and wanted to renovate,it has since been torn down however..I am a lover of old things like that and the history of it all..I do have memories of visiting in WVA ~ as well we used to go next door and the older fella would give us black licorice.. He was ready to go and he was praising God till the end..and that gives me hope ~ even in the storm he rejoiced :)
