"Jamie/Dennis and family:
Our hearts are breaking again for you. James and I cried together over Mert's passing. We have both thought all day about so many funny stories about Mert. I have always thought that James considered all of you as his brothers and sister. So many wonderful memories we have shared together around that table at the Binns home in Monticello, on the week long trips to Lake Chicot to catch some of the best crappie I have ever eaten. Mert will be missed by so many. He was always telling me I should have married him instead of James Roy and we would laugh. James and I love all of you so much and pray for you during this very hard time.
James, Cindy, Kim and Madison"
