Mrs. McLellan was very good to me. She was my typing teacher in high school. I thought the world of her. She will be missed.

I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. McLellan's passing. My sincere condolences to Gordon and Cindy. I must share that she was a great teacher and most importantly, she was my inspiration. She taught Typing at Mullins High School for many years and made it known to all that she was a Clemson fan. I loved typing so much that I took her class three times. I am grateful for the time she took up with me and her encouraging words to be the best that I can be. Her love and genuine concern for her...

My bothers and I spent many hours at the Miss Jackie's house as children, in Chesterfield and in Fork, as our families have always been close. No one can make "brown potatoes" like Miss Jackie! Much love to Cindy and Gordon and the family. Wishing you all peace and comfort.
