CJ will surely be missed. I used to look forward to seeing CJ come into the warehouse at SVTC. We would talk about children, pastimes and just whatever came up. You are in my prayers.

My condolences goes out to the Joiner Family at this time. I got to know Mr. Joiner when he was working at SVTC. He was a good person to know and to be around. May God be with his family at this time.
