to the Odom Family: our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.

Millie, Vernon and I are so sorry to hear about Bob. Our prayers are with all of you. Love you Millie

To the Odom family, The Department of Agriculture was my first place of employment and I worked for the State for 20 years. Mr. Odom was like a father to everyone. He was a fair and caring boss. He always had an encouraging word for you when he greeted you. I also had many fun times with Jenelle Sutton, my coworked, Lemmie Walker, Wayne Guilbeau, Fred Burkette, Pete Broussard and so many people I will never forget. Millie always had a smile for you. You have our condolences and sympathy....
