I remember when I was a child of 10 years old and my family visited our family in Massachusetts. We went out to eat at an Italian restaurant and Uncle Jim, out of the blue, folded up his red cloth napkin as if it were a bandana. He then placed it around his head with the entire table looking at him with question in our minds. Uncle Jim then said two words "Willie Nelson". Our table erupted with laughter from Uncle Jims wonderful sense of humor. The few memories I have of Uncle Jim are all similar to this, bright and happy.
Although I am of Jim Belchers extended and long distance family. I grieve this great loss today in our family.

Love, Todd Raymond
