    To interested u should get one if those small metal wallets. That’s what I got. U can put bout 6 cards plus ur drivers license n it. U can’t put a check book n not much cash but I noticed u said credit cards so u may not tote around cash which is a good thang. But anyhow I got mine from a gas station. Tha kangaroo station n atmore over by tha vanity fare area had them b4. There bout $8.00 but its worth it I thank. It’s real small u can put it in ur pocket n it won’t b pokin out er nun.

    To the Hall family I’m sorry fer yalls loss. I keep u all n my prayers.

    It’s a very sad commentary of our times and the people around us.
    Someone probably just wanted his car and some money and just killed him
    for what ever was in his pockets.
    Today I stopped to help at an accident scene and some guy in an
    grey small truck tried to get into my vehicle and take my purse.
    My truck was locked and as soon as he saw me watching him he left.
    It reminded me of the people who were robbed at the graveside services.
    Old people seem to really be a target right now for opportunists. I find
    I have to be careful continually with being short changed and people trying
    to take my purse, phone or credit cards.
    Be very wary of strangers getting too close to you, your car, or your personal
    information. Nobody is safe anymore.
    My most heart felt condolences to the Hall family.

    Me… for catching all the opportunistic criminals.
