I met Miss Jessie when she and Lou Wood joined the Senior Center about 2yrs ago. When she was unable to come, I always asked Miss Lou how Miss Jessie was doing. Miss Jessie was a very active lady. All my prayers to the family.

Dear Hope and Vernon,
Miss Jessie will be missed in Old Mt. P. Jessie possessed a the true Southern Ladies charm and was the last of the Pherigo St. gang that helped define what Mt. Pleasant is today.
Sincere condolences,

Dear Dolly and Family,

We are going to Miss Ms. Jessie the last 11 years she was such a part of our life. Every time I passed her house I would stop for a visit. Her daily phone calls became something I looked forward to. Her love of her family would show on her face and in her smile when she would talk about her grandsons and great grandson. Dolly you were more than a daughter inlaw to her. With all of my family so far away for me I feel god put Ms. Jessie in my life to help me adjust to not having them close. I will miss our shopping trips to Belks. But , I know she is happy she had such a love for God and was such a Shepard to everyone. Dolly we need to keep in touch one thing she told me last week was that we should be friends . She was such a wonderful lady. May god bless all of you .
Love, Verna and Ronnie Turner
