Jack's obituary is still available on the Billy M. King Colonial Chapel website. Attached is a copy.
The funeral home apparently thinks the cemetery is in Mendenhall while FAG says it's in Martinville. Also, the obituary says he would be buried in the New Good Hope Primitive Baptist CHURCH Cemetery while FAG just uses Good Hope Primitive Baptist Cemetery without using Church in the name. Grrr!
Also, one of my pet peeves is people will say a cemetery is IN a city/town when really it is NEAR the city/town. Why not just list the county when the cemetery isn't inside a city limit.
