Not sure what to say?

I am sorry to hear of Chap's passing and for your loss. All though I have not seen uncle Chap in years I can remember attending the b.f.i summer partys in Illinois when I was young with him and my parents,Or him and/or "Jimmy" stoping by our house when he/they were in the area. He was a good man with a huge heart.

I am so very sorry for the loss of Jim. I worked with him at Richard and Browning Ferris and enjoyed every day. He made us all laugh. He called me Granny even tho' I was only a year older then him and I called him 'Big Kid' because he was. I know you will miss as will I.

A man that will be missed.. those who knew him will find a hole in there lives as large as the man. You are missed but never forgotten! It has been my privilege to know you. We will settle up in the next life.

Our thoughts are with you and family.
We knew the family thru Jim Jr. and enjoyed when he was with our sons. Even talked to Sr. a few times. My husband and I are both ex Navy and proud to know that Sr. served. Think good thoughts and know that you had good years Nita. Take care of yourself...

Nita and LaRue family,

Tom and I send you our deepest condolences at this time of great loss.

Be comforted in knowing you and Jim had a fulfilling life together.

I pray God's comfort and endless Pug kisses will ease your pain.

Hugs from your Pug friend,
