Dear Ann and Family, Please accept my sincere sympathy at the loss of your beloved husband, father and grandfather.I will always remember how gracious and welcoming you were when I visited your home with your niece, Virginia. I know there is great joy in heaven today as Jim is reunited with his beloved sister, Eileen. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.

Dear Anna, Jim, Bob, Mary Ann & Nathan,

We were so saddened to hear of Jim's passing. Our memories of him will always be of the good times we spent together and how proud he was of his family and of his cool basement workshop (it really was quite impressive!). Jim is now in a better place and saving our places. His spirit is surely bright and beaming, and no longer burdened by the disease that took him from you and all of us much too early.

God bless you all.
