    To the Family of Betty Jean Teer:
    My sincere and deepest sympathy to you at this very sad time in your lives. I was born in Gastonia and grew up with your mother. I went all through school with her and to church with her. I remember her as being very witty and a wonderful classmate. May God bless all of you and be with you as you grieve for the loss of your mother. I lost my wife on Oct. 20, 2007.
    Most sincerely,
    David Mackorell
