Sending comdolence and love to the family. Ms. Jack was a wonderful women. I loved her culinary skills when she worked for Ingles. The Deli has not been the same. When I ordered large amounts of food for Hospice, she would always make sure the order was correct. I'm praying for all the Family and Friends.
Our condolences to the Wray family. Mrs.was very dear to my heart. I respected her and she gave pure sincere love in return.
