So sorry to hear of Uncle Odis' passing. He was always so kind to me as was Aunt Bea before her passing. May God comfort you all as you know he is in a much better place filled with joy. Nancy Lyles Sonnier

I'm sad for those of us who will be left behind but I know there was a great welcome party with all of his loved ones. I have one of my most favorite memories with my papaw when we were visiting with Uncle Odis and Aunt Bea. He took me horse riding and looked for arrow heads! I will always remember those special days, he was a great man. ..a Welch, they don't make men like the Welch brothers anymore! My prayers are with you all.
