I am so sorry that I am just now writing this--I only now heard of JC's passing. Wilma and family-please know that I think of JC often in a loving and "grateful to have known him" heart. My mother always referred to him as "her most favoritte cousin" . JC could always make me laugh and leave with a smile on my face. Im so sorry for your loss, I know you loved him deeply. Prayers for peace and happiness are wished for each of you. ..with much love, Becky Peacock (Mary Cochran-Young-Brannen-Goodin's daughter in Tx).

Dear Wilma and family,
My thoughts and prayers for you and your family for your loss.
J.C. was an extraordinary man who valued friendship. I will never forget his phone calls through the years, checking on me after R.L. passed. And always asking about our parrots. Remember the good times and laughter.
