Jackie, Precious memories will linger forever. May you find comfort in knowing that earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. Our bible teaches us that weeping endures for a night but joy comes in the morning. Cry if you must, but know that God is a miracle worker and he heals all wounds. To God be the Glory for the many things He has done.
WE LOVE YOU AND WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY UP IN PRAYER.

Damn JJ, what are you doing checking out before me???? That's just not right. I know you're in a good place and thanks for the smiles all those years that you were my team leader :) You had a wonderful husband and father who made many of us laugh over the years. He will be missed by not only you all but by his NUMMI family also. God bless you all and may he have his arms around JJ as I type. Praying that God will give you strength to help you through this very sad time. He's in the best of hands for sure.
