Mr. Haley was such a special, sweet man and was a true man of God. He will be missed dearly. Rick first met Mr. & Mrs. Haley while working at Wallace & Owen’s grocery store (now Harps). Sandie met them there as well. They always had a smile on their faces and were such an inspiration to us. We are assured that Mr. Haley is now in the arms of our Lord and Savior.

Carson was perhaps the happiest person I have ever known. I think the reason was that he was focused on his savior, and always looked forward to today, the day when his reward would come. Never to be forgotten by his family and never to be forgotten by myself, Carson will be remembered for his willingness to share his faith and positive attitude with anyone he knew. He was an example of what we all should try to be. Praise to you my friend!

Thank you so much my dear friend. There will many days that we think back 60 years and remember every time our families got together it was always a joyful reunion. All 63 years we knew your family and with our family we can remember all them wonderful times serving the Lord Jesus together, having prayer, talking about the Message of this hour and looking for going home in the Rapture. Every time we had our suppers together, or maybe coffee and cake, them days are cherished. We love you Donna and your family with all our hearts. Thanks for every prayer for my precious Christian Daddy and real Man.

Well Daddy you are with the redeemed of all ages. Walking and talking with your only grandson in heaven, I just cannot grasp the joy and health you have living in that young body again. I can always remember being with you working or hunting together and we would mention that one day you would have that missing finger back that the punch press stole from you. Today it matches all the rest of your young body like you were when your first born Son seen you for my first time.
Daddy all my live I remember us living for the Lord Jesus, going to church and believing the Message brought by our Prophet William Marrion Branham. I was raised to serve the Lord Jesus, live Holy and to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Daddy you were the real Christian parent that your Son could always say my Daddy is a real Born Again Spirit Filled Believer, bought by the blood of the Lord Jesus and he has no mistakes. That was you Daddy.
Daddy all the times we traveled with Mother and my Wife to Jeffersonville to hear Bro Branham or go to the Tabernacle to hear the Tape Message, it was always a joy to be with you and rejoice worshipping the Lord Jesus.
I remember one time when we stayed all night with my great grandpaw, I was about 5 years old and I got to sleep with you Daddy, and until this very day I still remember what a joy that was, I got to spend the night and sleep with my Daddy, and then we went fishing together.
There are so many many memories I have with you Daddy, one was working on a car engine for a Bro, it was so cold under that ole big oak tree beside the house, we had a tarp over us, and I was holding the light for you.
Daddy, me and you hunted together many times, fished together many times, and I would have them red worms ready so when I heard that ole black Ford truck coming down the road I knew it was my Daddy and I would run out to meet you and hug you and Daddy you would say, hossfly how you doing. Wow what days them were.
Daddy I also remember all them nights we prayed together before we would go to bed, and read our Bibles and even many times we would listen to Bro Branham on Tape.
Daddy you know I love you and loved you for raising me to serve the Lord Jesus, and now it’s payed that part of your reward, your in Heaven waiting on your firstborn Son and it won’t be long I’ll see you again and that’s a promise.
Daddy I miss you so much, I just wasn’t prepared for you to leave me the way you did, I didn’t get to be with you the last seven months of your life, didn’t get to be with you when you were so bad, I wasn’t there the day before or the day you passed, but it wasn’t because I didn’t or don’t love you, I was not permitted to be. But that’s ok, I will meet you in the resurrection or the Rapture, there will not be anyone keep me away from you there.
So Daddy as I finish this little note of memories and memorial of respect and love for you, I know that I can’t see you but I feel your presence near me and you know now that this Son loved you, and I long to be with you and Josh my precious nephew in Heaven soon.
So Daddy when I get so lonely to see you, I get so lonesome to hug your neck and say, paw I love you, won’t you just come around me. You are always welcome to just let me know that your watching over your Firstborn Son the Lord gave you on that September day.
Love you Daddy, and all the times that your life was seen living exactly what you preached and lived while the years rolled by, you were my Daddy and Hero in this life, and will be my Daddy and Bro in that eternal life you are now enjoying with Bro Joshua Parker.
See you soon Daddy, and I will always remember what you taught me, love the Lord Jesus with all your heart, live right, do right, treat folks right, be honest, pray and read your Bible, than Son if I go before you do, we will still be together again one day.
From your firstborn Son
Carson Mayfield Haley.

Daddy you are missed badly already. I know you were ready to go on to glory, you lived a tremendous life for the Lord Jesus and also faithful to the Message of the hour. I know you are now in that new home that we talked about so many times, discussion about that land beyond the curtain of time, you were one of them that ran up to Bro Branham and screamed our precious Bro, we are so happy to see you.
Bro Branham told us that you had hair down to your shoulder, a beautiful white gown on and you were from 18 to 20 years old. And I know that you don’t even have that index finger missing no more you have the original one back.
All those ole friends like Bro Oliver and Bro Godwin, Bro Don Davis and their wives with them, Bro Billy Paul and Bro Joshua, and of course our Prophet Bro Branham. You were one of them that picked him up so all the other saints could see him as they were running to him. We see him Daddy, and we believe him too,every Word. It will take us to that land beyond the river one day soon.
Daddy I can just see princess your beautiful horse you once had on earth standing beside you resting her neck on your shoulder.
Remember the song we used to sing, What will it be when we get over yonder, and join them saints upon the glassy sea. You are in that glorious land to rest now and wait on us. It won’t be long, we’ll see you again Daddy, but you won’t be bent over or sick there, you’ll be walking straight and grinning that Haley grin you always wore.
Daddy we loved you and love you now, and soon we shall live with Mother in that land of praises and singing and shall live all eternity.
I miss you here with us, but I’m also happy that you ran the race with faith and perfect love, now living in that perfect kingdom of God.
Until we meet again Daddy, watch over us ok, keep your eyes on your little family down here struggling to make that land with you.
From your firstborn Son, tell them all, Bro Richard also, that when they ring those golden bells for us we’ll be there to meet you and those loved ones gone on before us. Tell them all your firstborn Son said, We’ll meet you in the morning with a how do you do.
Love you and miss the real real Daddy I had on Earth’s journey to live with and he your Son.

My Daddy was a gentlemen and Christian that once you met him you knew that he was a real friend and Bro.
He sure was a real family Man and Daddy, a real lover of God’s Word and a real Christian husband to my Mother.
I don’t remember my first Words I said to him, but I remember the last Words I told him, I said Daddy if I never meet you again down here, I will see you over there.
Well than seven months later, without the privilege to be by your side as you closed your eyes for that journey, without being able to tell you goodbye, without getting to hug your neck and tell you how much I loved you, you just easily went down to Jordan and crossed over without any sorrow or heartaches to ever bother you again.
I wanted to be by your side and hold that ole hand I shook a many times while hugging your neck and silently praying for you, but life didn’t give me that chance, that’s ok though I got a reservation to see you at that gate when his great trumpet sounds out for the resurrection or the rapture.
Daddy I’m looking for you soon to come some morning and start walking around us like they did in the Bible. Oh Daddy I’ll know then that we are fixing to be together again for eternity this time.
Just wanted to tell you that all your family and friends back here on earth miss you and know that their friend, Daddy, Bro, husband, made it safely to that happy glorious land that we all long to enter some day.
Daddy I just want you to know that we are making it ok down here, and we are just praying that we can be the kind of Daddy and Man you were while teaching us how important that it will be one day when these eyes close in death to be ready to go like you were Daddy.
Just miss you so much, I just want to express to everyone that might read this little memorial how good of a Daddy you were to me. How I love you so much for raising me to love the Lord Jesus and live the kind of life that Jesus will except in Heaven.
Daddy I know you made it home, now I want to make it also. Keep me on your mind if that’s possible in that land of perfection and to know I think about you day and night, with tears flowing down my cheeks I write this to you Daddy, I will make Heaven my home to be with you and your family praising our Lord Jesus for ever and ever and while the eternal ages roll.
When that roll is called up yonder I’ll be there with you, that’s a promise from your firstborn Son down here missing you and crying that you are gone out of my sight but not my heart.
Love you Daddy
Rest in peace
Until we meet again,
God’s presence you are living with,
That’s my desire to.
Bye bye Daddy, miss and love you.
