Cheryl, I had the pleasure of meeting your dad and I could tell that he was a very sweet and lovable man. I'm sorry I wasn't in town to pay my last respects. Just know if there is anything I can do, please call or let me know, and give Kay my respects also. Just know that he is in a beautiful place and he is now your guardian angel. I will be thinking of all of you and praying God will give you all the strength to heal your hearts. Remember all the memories you all made with him. Love Ya! Linda J.

Dearest Kay,

Jim has received his promotion to eternal life! How grand it must be for him to see Jesus. Teresa, Philipine and I are deep in prayer for you and your family. Remember Kay, Jim is not gone. It is only with OUR eyes,we cannot see him, nor with OUR ears, we hear him, not. He is with Jesus, just as He promised. Thanks be to God! May God wrap the arms of His love around you and Give you Peace. AMEN
