Hey folks. I bring you this message from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. My wife (Myra Thrasher, '65) and I bumped into Jackson Price (Walter Jackson Price II) today in the Stuart, Virginia WalMart. He was with his wife and I apologize because I can't remember her first name. As Jackson stood aside with a walker, his wife told us that Jackson has an brain tumor and will spend his last days at Blue Ridge Nursing Center in Stuart. I'll always remember Jackson as that quiet, soft-spoken kid in high school who always smiled and spoke to you. He was never in the limelight, but who among us didn't like Jackson. He hasn't changed a bit. Still quiet and smiling. Every time I saw him over the years he always asked me "when are we going to have a class reunion." I'm not sure if he was there for the 50th, but I certainly hope he was. My heart goes out to Jackson. His brain tumor is inoperable. So, let us pray! |
