First of all I am so sorry. Jaycee was always friendly to everyone and was always willing to help with any problem you might have. He will be missed not only by his family but his community. He was a number one guy.

Mark would always tell the story about Jaycee and Ramona when they were dating they would take him and Andy to the drive-in. When they got to the drive-in Ramona and Jaycee would set close together and all Mark and Andy wanted to do was watch the movie. Another time Mark went with them on vacation to the gulf. He would talke about going buck hunting with Jaycee. Especailly the time they were hunting out of season and they all got caught. Mark never forgot that Jaycee was willing to share his time with him as a small boy. He thought the world of Jaycee.
I remember him always busy working in the garden, caring for the fruit trees, helping fix and crank that blame ice cream maker, helping with christmas morning country ham breakfast,cookint fish,playing Rook cards,his love for his girls and his grandchildren, setting around the table talking and most of all his smile. No matter what his status was in serving his community he never seemed to be better than anyone he was just Jaycee. What a jewel God has in heaven now. I'm sure he will be shaking everyone's hand and helping Mark in the garden. Love you Jaycee
