Not sure what to say?

The message of Sept 2010 appears to be the one I wrote as that describes our friendship and a crush in Elementary School and a nice luncheon when He was very ill and he gave me his old Matthews Directory. Miss this guy. Connie Goolsby Bray joined us that day. I still think of Jackie alot.

New Jackie for ever, meet him in the 3rd grade, when in the 4th grade ,Jackie broke his arm! hurt me worse than it did him. Knew his family, met them In 1955. Can't say enough about how much his friendship meant to me.!!!!!!!

Teresa, I am a friend of Sharon's so I have been aware of Jackie's illness. He fought a valient fight. Thinking of you at this sad time. Patty Key
