    Our years together at First Methodist Church in Carrollton brought Maury into our lives. He was a dear special man, a real charmer with everyone who knew him. We are sad that he has left us, but rejoice with him and our dear Lord Jesus that Maury is in his eternal home. God bless each and everyone who will greatly miss him.

    I am so sorry for your loss, my sympathy and prayers are with you and the family.
    Maury & you have been a part of my life for over 50 years and to see his love for our Lord, his family and his career are remarkable. I remember the first day he introduced you and knew he had found the love of his life. He lived his life as a Christian sharing his love of Christ with others so they would have the joy he had found, he will be remembered for so many positive deeds.
    Thank you for coming to Shreveport so I could see my dear friend before he went home to be with the Lord, that smile and love of people, he never meet a stranger.
    He fought the good fight and now he has a new body, no more pain. God may have a golf course in heaven we just do not know?
    I will be with you in my thoughts and prayers at the visitation and services and wish I good be there physically but the body can not make the trip.
    We love you
    Frances, Pam & Lisa

    The entire clinic is going to miss Maury deeply. He was always such a joy to be around and made each of us smile and laugh every time he was near. Even at times when he felt unwell, he always showed such affection towards all of us and made everyone feel as loved and as special as he was. It was such an honor and a gift to have been part of his life.
