Meet Kris Cagle (​Funeral Director)
My journey began in Marietta, GA, and led me to earn a BA degree from LaGrange College. While in college, I worked in the funeral industry, which set the foundation for my career.

​With 42 years dedicated to Fire and EMS services, including serving as the Fire Chief of West Point, I have always been committed to helping others.

As a Funeral Director, I now have the privilege of serving at Valley-Point Funeral Home in Lanett, AL.

Monday evening, Oct 27, 2025, after a challenging recovery from a recent surgery, Sylvia Hodnett Gex passed away after 92 years traveling around the sun, picked up stakes on the rock we call earth and moved into her Heavenly Father’s house.

This quote reflects the changes in nature during the fall season and the beauty that emerges from the cycle of life and death.
It also captures the idea that even as nature's vibrant colors fade and leaves fall, there is a unique and captivating beauty in this transformation, akin to a second burst of life. It emphasizes the idea that the changing season is not solely about decay but also about the rich and vivid display of nature's artistry.

Yo soy Kimberly,

Soy la mama de Liam, y les contare nuestra historia y como era mi bebe Liam.

Al principio cuando yo supe que el venia al mundo, yo senti miedo pero lo estaba esperando con mucho amor, cuando lo tuve en mis brazos todo cambio y luego nos fuimos a casa juntos mi mundo era solo el, al pricipio nos daba miedo tocarlo por que era tan fragil y entre mi prima Hilaria y yo lo banamos por primera vez y desde ese dia a el le encantaba el agua y conforme paso el tiempo era uno de sus momentos favoritos quedarce mucho tiempo jugando en el agua.

A Liam le gustaba mucho jugar con sus carritos y pelota, Tambien le gustaba bailar cuando escuchaba musica de regeton y cuando estaba con Elsa le gustaba mucho usar la patineta y jugar a la comidita con la cosinita convivia y el era Feliz con todos ahi, el disfrutaba cuando Elsa le leia libros y miravan caricaturas juntos, sucomida favorita eran las sopitas, papas fritas, spaguetti, pollo frito, y su yogurt que no podia faltar y su bebida favorita era la shakalaka sus frutas favoritas eran las fresas, bananas, y uvas.

Un dia, me metioun cotonete por la nariz cuando yo estaba dormida, y Recuerdo que se espanto, a Liam le gustaba explorar cosas nuevas y descubrir para que eran y como se usaban por ejemplo, cuando el veia la escoba, la agarraba y queria barrer con ella y ahi se entretenia, aun que enrealidad no podia baraer bien el si sabia para que era, a Liam le gustaba probar de todas las comidas aun que el ya habia comido el lo queria probar de todo lo que le dieran o uan que estuviera caliente la comida el lo queria probar, Liam era un nino lleno de alegria el bino a iluminar mi vida, y a ensenarme lo que es el amor verdadero, y se que desde donde el eta en Cielo el nos mira y no guardara rencor de nada ni a nadie, el es un Angelito que llego a dejar el mas hermoso Recuerdo en mi vida y en la de su tia Hilaria y en la de todos los que lo conocieron, y hasta en las vidas de las personas quienes no lo conocieron, todos lo vamos a recorder con mucho amor para siempre.
