Monticello, AR Tuesday, March 29, 2022 Gloria,I am so sorry to hear of Joey passing. You all were our neighbors for many years and I can remember Mr. Ronnie, and Joey would bring my parents (Ulyess & Ann Lewis) deer meat, fish, etc. If we had family out of town, and we didn't have enough parking room in our yard, you all would always allow our family to park in your yard with no problem. Joey was so nice and when ever I seen him , he would talk about his family and he would asked about my family. He will be missed. My God give the family comfort and strength. RIP
