We are heartbroken that Jerome, "Scoutmaster" as my husband called him, has left us. He frequented our store for years. We supported him and his boy scout troop and went to a ceremony once at Orange Grove Missionary Baptist Church. He brought us some of his southern cooked meals over the many years and they were always the best! His macaroni/cheese, 7 layer salad, homemade soup. I could go on and on. And I had ask my husband several weeks ago "Have you seen Jerome?" Our hearts go out to the family and we are so sorry that we missed his service. He will be DEARLY missed.
