Julie, Kim, Carrie, and all the family. How sad I was to hear about your Dad. Thank-you Carrie for your call and message. I worked with Dr. Mullins when he worked for the Health Dept. He was such a caring, gentle person, and I loved working with him. (He used to take a look at my 2 children when they got sick.) We moved from Beaufort in 1987, but I stayed in touch with him all these years. He was a very special man. I hope to be able to talk to someone in the near future. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love,

Linda & James Goodman, Sr.

Our prayers are with the Mullins family. I enjoyed attending worship and Sunday Bible Study with Dr. Rod. I also enjoyed the opportunities that I had to hunt with him. He was a true Christian gentleman.
