Mom was a saint. She took care of me through the death of my father Ernest Elton Jay when I was one year old. Married Roy Melvin Jackson who was a good provider. When ever we went somewhere, I would always go with mom. She brought me to church and saw that I excepted Jesus and was baptized. I’ll never forget her telling me how she picked cotton with her sister Myrtle and her brothers Cecil, Billy, David and Elwood. She sang and played guitar in church with David. Wish I could have heard that. She had a tough life although she always seemed happy. She made me happy and I still love her and miss my mom. Ernie
