Betty, Robert, Kay and Daisy, I want to express our deepest sympathy. I have know Chicken for a long time and always loved to be around him. I pray God will comofrt you'll. I know you will miss him. One day I was driving my uncle Glenn to the doctor in Little Rock and Chicken was with us and when we started home he said "we better go home a different way, someone might be laying for us". I laugh every time I think of him saying that. Love, Garry Ann Jones
