Hamburg, AR Friday, June 18, 2010 I have not seen Bartley in a long time, but I remember him from when I was younger, and I always was kind of shy around him because he was one of my grown-up cousins. I wish the family the best and want you all to know that I will be thinking of you today, and I am sorry I am unable to attend his funeral today. My love to all my cousins...Michael & Angela Purifoyy
