Mr. DeStefano,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Jim used to drive me sometimes to work at Jergusons and after work we would stop at the VFW. If anyone needed help, he would always pitch in. He talked about his family a lot and how much you all meant to him. Please accept my condolences.
