My most sincerest condolences to the family of Dr. Lockhart. I grew up next door to his sister Ethel Jordan who was a wonderful role model for me. I launched a non profit in her memory titled Flowers to Widows after her husband passed. (www.jvcares.org) I grew up hanging out with Cassandra and Abigail as kids. This notice is how I discovered Gail was no longer with us. May she rest in peace. I actually traveled to the family home in Louisville with the Jordans when I was a child. First time I ever tasted coffee. What a long and blessed life he led and was a key patriarch in a wonderful family. My deepest condolences to Mrs. Lockhart and the family.
