Not sure what to say?

I did a lot of work for Mr. Nettles for 20 years until he retired. He always gave me good advice and I considered him a friend. Always enjoyed visiting him at the River. My thoughts are with his family.

MC was an astute businessman and a mentor. I learned a lot from him.

When I was writing the book on the shipyard in Savannah, I talked at length with M.C. and he was extremely helpful with stories about the yard, the people who worked there and his own experiences. I am extremely grateful for his assistance and very sorry to hear of his passing. Tony Cope

I never met MC but I know with all my heart that he was a loved grand-dad and great grand-dad. His grand-daughters will truly miss him and their trips to the river house. His youngest grandson Joseph brought warmth to his heart as soon as he came through the door, you can see the light in both their eyes light up in the many pictures of them together. Rest in peace knowing you were loved and will be missed greatly!

I enjoyed hunting with Mr. M.C. at Clyo Hunting Club. He was a good friend and would help you in any way.

Thank you old buddy for always being there when I needed a friend or advice. I will always remember the good times we had . I can never say enough good things . I love you and will miss old buddy .

MC Nettles was our neighbor and he was like a second father to me. He was a kind and gentle man and I am the better for knowing him. MC loved God, his family, and his country. Thank you MC for your friendship and guidance over the years and thank you for believing in me. It has made all the difference in the world.

The Nettles were our next door neighbors on Wilmington Island Road .My father John Wu and MC were very close.When MC was deciding to purchase the property next door which was to small , my father told MC to use what part of our property that he needed ,a kind of friendship that doesnt exist in todays world .He was a kind man always willing to help with any problem . Although he is reunited with love ones in heaven he will be dearly missed in my heart.RIP
