wrote a sympathy message

“I met Mr. Jewel Davenport in Elizabeth City, NC at the puplic library. He was still driving at that time. He shared his testimony of his time in the Army on D-day. I was so impressed with his honestly of falling behind a stone or fence and praying until he fell asleep. I said, you should write a book! He answered that he was with the help of a typist. I purchased his book and am reading it today. Jewel my condolences to your family. Anne Wegiel”
