Colleen, Richard, Jackie and family,

Our hearts hurt for you and the loss of Jim. To me, he will always be Jimmy--the little boy riding his bike way too fast, getting into mischief, and wiping it all away with his big, innocent smile. It is hard to fathom such a sudden, shocking loss, and we feel your pain and sadness and cry with you as you try to make sense of it all. May the love of your family & friends bring you comfort and peace at this time.
