You all are in my thoughts and prayers. So many memories...seeing Jim looking like Ernest Hemingway in his hat walking with his beloved Labs around Greenbriar; sitting at our dining room table so many times through the years telling stories; hearing the tales of the Osage Hills gang growing up; and so many more memories that make me laugh and shake my head, too. The world has lost a character and the prairie dogs are wondering what happened. Love to all the Ernsts from Georgia Stobbs Cucchi(Marilynn May's daughter).
