Alyce, Karen and the rest of the Family,
I am so sorry for your loss.
Take comfort in knowing that he is finally at peace.
He truly was a fighter!
Alyce,
I will miss the times we talked while I was visiting my Mother at Middlebrook.
I always felt a warm feeling when you were there with me, especially when I was there alone.
Please take time to care for yourself now as you were a loving faithful spouse to Jim.
Be well,
Tracey
