Tommy,
I only met you a couple of times with my husband, J.M. Petree. He sure did think a lot of you. I just found out that Jackie taught with one of my "bestest" friends from childhood, Sara Royall. I am so sorry for your loss. I hope the Lord will lay His healing hands on you and walk with you through the difficult times. I will be praying for you.

Jackie was a wonderful cousin and I have many good memories of our fun times together as children. My prayers will continue to be with her family but I know that God has added another angel around His throne.
