Karen and Carla,
Even though I haven't seen either of you in many years,when I read about your Dad I felt a sense of sadness as if I had seen you recently. Please accept my condolences for your loss. My Dad worked with your Dad at Ford and had once told me of what a great guy he was. I'm praying that God will fill you and your family with peace and strength during this difficult time.

Jarvis Family,
I am so sorry for the loss of my friend,
'Jesse James ' He made me smile for the last 20 yrs. I could be having the most worst day of my life and I would be smiling when he left. Weather it was pulling my ponytail, blowing on my ear,or getting his 2 pounds of tootsie suckers for the children. I would just laugh. Now it is so silent. Thank you all for sharing him with me. There well never be a day that goes by that . I well not think of him. I loved him very much. As I love you all. God Bless and I well be thinking and praying for you all. Love Tric
