Brother number two, I love you, I so glad you were short like me- I loved your hand-me-downs growing up. I love your birthday parties in Florida.

A loving brother and a caring person to all and a great golfer- the only one that I could ever beat. He was a great Hokie fan.

Jim was not only a brother, but a friend and love by many. He will be missed but never forgotten. I'm sure is not only walking but running in heaven.
