To the Monnin Family-
Please accept our sincerest condolences and sympathy. Many of my fondest memories of growing up in Xenia was the times I spent with Jim, Maxine, and the kids. After I became a parent myself I sometimes wondered how Jim and Maxine were able to remain so calm and collected with 12 kids, and assorted friends rampaging around the yard. Jim was, quite simply, one heck of a father. Please know you are all in our prayers.
