Jellybean-That is how I will remember you. You was the one person in our lives, that we could count on for a piece of bubble gum. Everytime you would come around you always put your hand in your pants pocket to pick out a piece of bubble gum to give to each of us as kids. You always has a pleasant smile on your face.
Ms. Adle and Family, I send my condolences to you. May God comfort you and give you peace at this time. God bless to all.
