Woodlawn, AR Tuesday, August 7, 2018 Mignon, I was so sorry to read of your great loss. I have known this family since I was a small child walking a dirt road down to Benny Jean's house. Macon Causey was one of the finest men I've ever known from a family of good people. Always full of life, when we cruised, us "kids" couldn't keep up with him and we all loved him dearly. Jean, Kathrine and all the family please know that you are always in my thoughts and prayers. May the Lord wrap his loving, healing arms around you and give you the comfort, peace and strength that only He can.With Love, Carole (Doss-Johns) Rushing
