I know Mrs Clower as a customer for Patnotte Grocery Store and I delivered groceries to her house. I meet her at the garage door. She was a great friend and customer. Her husband ( Jerry Clower) would come to Patnotte Grocery Store and shout out in a loud voice and the employees would know who was in the grocery store. A Movie Star was in Town. I was also a classmate of Mrs. Clower's daughter (Amy Clower)) at Yazoo High School. I will always her
