“Have Respect if you must Comment ”
Sorry, didn’t realize Jerry Geisler Odum was worthy of respect.
Have Respect if you must Comment . Family and friends will read this article Not a place for your pubescent idea of humor. Not this subject . Shame on the Newspaper for Posting.
Very sad that this person died. I’ll never understand how someone knowingly lives with a deceased person in their home. He had to know the family would be trying to contact the deceased person, thus the welfare check.
That’s just creepy
That’s gonna take some splainin’, Jerry.
Don’t keep dead bodies in your home. It looks suspicious.
