Please keep the family of as we all knew as “Cotton” in your Prayers. He was the brother of our Dealer Clerk Kim Russel. He will be truly missed as he was a personal friend of mine as well.

View Mark "Cotton" Alan Gambill's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.

I would suggest that if at all possible that if you need our services. That you come in as early as possible so that we can get you taken care of. Our computers start acting up when it gets 85 and above in the office. It’s already there at this time.

Sincerely,
Elwood
