Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the family at this time of sorrow. Wish we could be there to help comfort the family but time does not permit. C. J. will be mised by all. He had a wonderful personality and was loved by all. I played golf with him the last time I saw him at the Mitchem reunion in W. Va. and had great time. May God Be with you and comfort you all at this time.
