Benny, Mike and I send our deepest condolences to you and your family. Jadean was a special person - always joyful and fun to be around. We really enjoyed the 50th LHS reunion long discussion with both of you. Your life adventures together seemed wonderful and so much fun. So glad you had 60 years. We know her absence will be a big hole in each family members' heart but her lovely memory will sustain you all.

Love to the family,
Bette and Mike Sherrill
