Marge and Family;
As we know words can't ease your pain. Jimmy was such a kind person with a smile that could light up a room. He had so much knowledge to share and an easy spirit about him. Take comfort in his memories and that he was welcomed into the arms of his father when he entered heaven. He's probably eating one of Sals famous dishes right now. Love Bobbie & Leean
