Dear Jana and family: words cannot express the sadness in my heart upon learning last night of Jim's passing. The memories of all the joy and laughter he brought into my life will never end. Together, you two were an amazing couple, filled with love, honesty and pure enjoyment. I know he loved you more than life itself, Jana, and the love he had for his entire family was ENDLESS. Anyone could see that within one minute of a conversation with Jim.

This is just so heartbreaking.

Sending my never-ending love and friendship to you and your entire family,

Maribeth Koss (friend from the OPC and better days ?)
