Rayford Gibson:

[old inmate replies "no"]
Rayford Gibson:
Almost sixty years old; motherfucker can't read. Here: look, it's from, it's from your mama's neighbor, Mrs. Tadwell, you know who that is, Mrs. Tadwell; she thought you ought to know that your second cousin Bo died, Bo died, and your, and your other cousin Sally on your daddy's side, she died. Oh, and apparently your sister died, too.
Pokerface:
Jenny?
Rayford Gibson:
No, it said Marlene here, Marlene died
[reads on]
Rayford Gibson:
... no no no, Marlene, Jen-Jenny, Jenny died, too, Jenny and Marlene both dead. Then it goes on for a while about how the crop didn't come in on account of the frost, she finished up, there's been a big tornado in which your mama and your daddy were both killed, but don't worry because she's gonna take care of the dog, that is if he gets over the worms; dog had worms.
Pokerface:
Appreciate it.
Rayford Gibson:
Yeah, well you know, any time I can help.
