Jimmy,
I just wanted to say that I remember the time we were staying at Grams in Dundee down town. I don't remember how old we were, I just remember we were young. You, Bryan, and myself were laying in bed and I was Afraid of the dark, and you had this really big pink glow in the dark ring and you climbed up on the table in the kitchen and held the ring under the light and brought it back to bed and told me don't worry Randy I will make you feel better and you made the ring swirl around and you held my hand until we all fell asleep singing, BINGO.... And Gram held yelled at us and said you boys better get to sleep or Granddad was gonna take us up on the hill and feed us to the hogs...Live on my cousin you suffer no more and will greatly be missed... I will attach another angel bell on to my harley right next to Uncle Tommys so we all can be free in the wind I miss our long phone calls man you can talk... Any how miss you dearly and always ride free Jimmy and watch over me as I ride...
LOVE YOUR COUSIN,
Randy

Lisa & Kids,
My heart and prayers go out to you in this time of sorrow. I have now and will always have so many fond memories of one of my "Favorite" cousins. I remember him and the boys Brucie and Mark all climbing the big tree at daddys to hang the rope so that all us kids could have the swing. I can hear him saying my name when I would be in trouble. "Marty" I will miss him very very much! I was glad I was able to tell him that on Sunday so lisa thank you very much for allowing me to do that! And thankyou for taking care of him all of these years. He is in a better place and you will always have your "Angel" and what a good one at that. Love always Marty
