Loretta, Brian informed me about Stephen´s death last am very sad and feel so much sympathy for you and the family. The Avet family has touched our family in many ways, having Sterling for a while in his youth and long enough to give me two precious grandchildren, and being neighbors to Jim and Belle Avet even before that. Then later. Having both David and Debbie as good workers on our building projects - listening to their music - attending O. J´s retirement party from Texaco, and just being neighbors with them in Mulberry s/d .. many conversations with Carol Ann.....and FB friend with Lisa. I care for all the Avet family!! Stephen was always such a good son to Jewel and O.J. And he had a wife who supported him - always sweet to all of us. You and your family have my deepest sympathy. May God sustain you at this time. Love, Jerrie Wilson
