Bettyjo Joyce wrote a sympathy message

“Mary Cobb and Family, I'm so sorry about Mac's passing. I just saw his obituary when I typed in your name. It seems so strange to read that he died before we who still remember him as that cute, little boy. Also, I need to tell you about Gilmer. He died on Joel's birthday, Sept. 13, 2024. Right now, we're having a rough time, too. We miss him so much.”
