He was a stranger to none and treated everyone like family. Every individual who entered his home was welcomed and loved and he was known as \u201cpappy\u201d to many. He gave almost everyone a nickname. You could often find him playing his guitar and making music with a chew of his Beech-Nut tobacco or spending time with his great-granddaughter, Maddison Hedrick, \u201cWally\u201d as he called her. She was the apple of his eye.  <br><br>Surviving is a daughter, Carol \u201cLucas\u201d Broadwater of Petersburg; a son Tommie \u201cCrow\u201d (Toni) Hefner II, of Edinburg, Va.; a sister, Mary Alice (Landon) Shobe of Moorefield; four granddaughters, Brandi \u201cMouse\u201d (TJ) Hedrick, Leanna Brooke Hefner, Teri \u201cPud\u201d Broadwater and Cassie Hefner; three stepgrandchildren, Jay Adams, Amber Adams and Heather Adams; three great-grandchildren; six stepgreat-grandchildren;  and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.<br><br>Private family services will be held with military honors accorded by the U.S. Army and interment will be at the Scott Cemetery, Moorefield, where he will be buried alongside his mother, \u201cFuzzy\u201d and father Bill, whom he missed and loved so much.<br><br>The family will host a dinner to celebrate his life when restrictions on gathering have been lifted.<br><br>Condolences, shared memories and photos may be left on Tommie\u2019s tribute wall at www.fraleyfuneralhome.com.
