A man on Facebook, identifying Gresham as “Daddy,” posted a photo and the following condolences:
“20 years ago, I was three. You took me in as your son. Gave me your last name, and molded me into a civilized individual with morals and values. I still rebelled like all boys do. But it was your discipline and teachings that I made it threw [sic] high school. 
Your [sic] the reason I work. Your the reason I don’t have children, I wont have then until I can provide like you did. Your the reason I’m fearless. You showed me pain. You showed me hard work, talent, legal hustle, honesty, chivalry, how to live life with ADHD. It is now my 23rd birthday. And two days ago you left us. On July 1st. I didn’t get news until yesterday, while at work. My love for you will never die even though many questions were left unanswered. But you can’t run anymore. Heaven ain’t Tennessee. I can talk to you and mess with you all I want. I can look up and know you see me thinking of you. I’m content knowing that. I have no hate in my heart. I feared discipline and pain, so I was distant. I never disliked you, or wished bad upon you. I still can’t believe this is real. You are the strongest guy i know. You are superman, superman doesn’t die you were my uncle, my father, my guardian, and my teacher.
You have truly been missed.
But you will never be forgotten.
I love you Mr Gresham. Say hello to granny
R.I.P. To My Daddy”
The children were identified as 10-year-old Austin Day and 10-year-old Kinsley Wilson. They are siblings, and grandchildren to Mary Jo Yarbrough.
Authorities with the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) plan to spend Monday combing the area for more debris. An engine and a 5th seat still has not been located.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends at this difficult time.
