Chris, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember you and Art from college and sitting in your kitchen talking with the two of you when I worked in a school nearby.

I am truly sad to hear of Art's passing. Growing up next door with Art and all of the Jalove's, I always felt like part of a big happy, loving family. We spent alot of time together and alway had lots of fun and laughs.
May your love for each other help you thru this most difficult time.
I know that Art, Bill, Beano and my Dad are probably together just "shootin' the breeze" and looking down on the rest of us, taking care of us (Mom,too)
My prayers are with you and your family.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Mrs. Jalove and the entire Jalove Family,
May you all find comfort in Gods Love during this difficult time. May Arthur rest in peace. I remember Arthur as the much older Jalove when we were kids on Karlov and at St. Philomena, I grew up with Arthur's brother Martin and remember all the gang of the Jalove Clan. The entire Morel Family will keep you all in our prayers.
