I wish to extend my condolences to all of Jettie’s family. As i do not live in the Memphis area now, my meetings with Jettie over the years were restricted to Southwestern (Rhodes now) reunions. Jettie never changed. He was always the same thoughtful, gentile and willing person hat he was when we were in college, and in the same fraternity, together. I know his many friends and his loving family will always miss him.
Glenda, Jettie’s Southwestern Class of 1958 will miss his gentle kindness and pleasant smile at reunions. Jettie was a faithful alum and we enjoyed being with you both at reunions. Know that we’re all thinking about you and Jettie. Fondly, Lorraine Rayburn Abernathy ’58 Richmond, Virginia
We wish to express our sincere sympathy to the family of Mr. Bowen.
Glenda, my heart is with you and your children as you celebrate Jettie’s life. After such a long period of suffering he must be smiling to have shed the body that has shut down to leave his beautiful soul to shine. You have to be physically and mentally exhausted. Take care of yourself and I will call soon.Thinking of you with love, Elinor
I am sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences. We can look forward to the time when all sickness, suffering, and death will be gone forever. Isaiah 33:24; 25:8
Mrs. Bowen, Glen, Lori, Todd, Reagan and the rest of the family, my thoughts and prayers are with you all. May he now rest in peace. My grandfather battled Alzheimer’s for over 12 years and it’s one of the most horrible diseases to watch someone go through in life and harder for the caretakers.God Bless
