We met Rusty and Susan in the Summerville Jaycees. What a heart for the Town of Summerville! If he knew you, you were a friend. So many of us are better for having known him. So many wonderful memories of Jaycee projects and Sunday dinners. I pray for peace and comfort for Susan and all of his family.
Sincerely,
Danny and Deborah Jenkins
