| I worked for Luther for five fun years. He was a true gentleman. I found him to be a very honest man with high integrity. Loretta and I are very saddened to hear of his passing and have him and his family in our prayers. |

| My husband, Allen, worked for Luther at Univeral Home Supply, and always had good things to say about Luther. He had a lot of admiration and respect for Luther, and felt privileged to work for an organization that treated their customers fairly. Even though Allen passed away in 2006, he would have wanted Luther's family to know what an inspiration he was to those that worked for him. | |

| Unfortunately I cannot attend the funeral but Luther and his Family will be in my prayers. I have known Luther Borden my whole life and as a child I always called him Uncle Luther. He gave me an opportunity as a young man to learn a business and I will forever be grateful for that. He helped me when I needed the help. He was a fine and honest man and treated everyone with dignity. I am very saddened to learn of his death but I know he is in a much better place. God Bless Luther Borden. |
