I went to school with Jackie all my life and stayed at the Mullis home many times as a kid. Always considered them family and I'm sure Ms Libby often got tired of feeding me. My heart and prayers goes out to the entire family during this trying time. My sincere condolences.

Prayers for the Mullis family. I lived in Cochran as a child for a very short time, and was treated so kindly by Jackie and Terry. When I read of Jackie's passing and the other comments I knew they became kind men as they were children. God bless you all, and may His grace comfort and keep you in the days to come. Phil 4:13

My heart is so heavy today with sadness for your family. Jackie was always so nice when ever I stopped by the cleaners. He would get my ticket ready when he saw me drive up and always had a smile on that face. He would keep me up to date with Josh. So very sorry he lost this battle and I know there will be an empty space in your hearts.
