Mary, I just wanted you to know how sorry I am to here of Jug's passing. He will really be missed by your family. I will keep you in my thoughts and I have told Carey before that if you ever need to talk or need anything I am at home most of the time with nothing going on so feel free to call me anytime.
You will be in my thoughts, Ruth Smith - Newton, NC

Sis, Carey told me about her Uncle Jug and I am so sorry for you and her. I will keep you in my thoughts.
Sincerely, Shawn Smith - Love Valley, NC

Sissy, Mark and I want you to know that you continue to be in our thoughts and if you need anything, we're a phone call away. I'm going to miss Uncle Jug so much and I want you to know that I honestly believe he's with his mom and ma and can see all of us. He loved you so much and he told me in Oct. he was worried about you and I assured him that we would take care of you even from NJ., so if you need anything call us, if you want a break or getaway we will find a way to get you here. Listen, I told you this before too, don't you let your pride get in the way, Daddy and Momma love you. They are not the best at showing it and it was hard on them to see Uncle Jug the way he was, but that does not mean that they do not care and would not be there for you if you need them. You will have to just ask and they will do anything for you, but you have to let them know because they aren't like me and you. They care, they just do not show it very well alot of the times. Well we miss you and love you. Love, Carey
Sicklerville, NJ
