Jessie C. Trett, 51, of Moore died Tuesday, Dec. 16, 2003. Services were 
Dec. 19 at the First Baptist Church in Dougherty with Pastor Willard 
"Chopper" McCartney and hospice chaplain Harry Smith officiating. Burial

Trett was born Jan. 27, 1952, to Opal Marie (Callis) and Doris Howard

While living in Sulphur as a young man, he trained and raced quarter

to his health. In May 2002, they moved to Moore to be closer to his
