Betty:
Please accept our condolences on
your loss of Jack. We loved him
and shall miss him so much. He was
always a fixture at Northbridge
Piggly Wiggly almost every day, J.D. used to say he thought he was
on the payroll...you know how much
they kidded each other all the time
and he was just one of the best and
nicest men we ever had the priviledge of knowing. We miss
seeing you too and want you to know
how much we loved your wonderful
husband...he was a man among men
and will be missed by many.
Sincerely

Mrs. Martin and family, I had spoken with Jack by phone several times in the past few years. At Pearlstine (Palmetto) Distributors, he was always so sweet and funny to everyone! He was a special person, and a good man. You two always looked and acted so sweet together. Speaking for everyone that knew him, especially me, we'll miss Jack greatly. You take care.
Love,Marsha Ott
