Not sure what to say?

Joe Anna,

Lisa and I received a catalog from Zaplin Lampert today in the mail. We are so saddened to learn of James's passing. We remember so fondly the evening spent with you, in your home several years ago. We always seem to be on the go and don't take time to keep up with friends. James was an outstanding artist, but so much more than that.
God bless you and yours, Lisa and George

Sorry to hear you passed away today while watching a This Old House revisit.

Losing a loved one is never easy, but our loving god promises to give the strength and courage you'll need to endure, and to cope with the pain of your loss. He also promises to hold your hand every step of the way.
-JW-
(Isaiah 40:29, 41:10, 13)

So sorry for your loss. So happy you two had each other and so much joy. God bless you.

Wishing Joe Anna and family peace and strength at this difficult time. The world is a more beautiful place because James shared God's gift of his amazing talent for all of us to enjoy. Like God's love, his wonderful art and gentle spirit will endure.

Joe Anna, I am so sad to hear the news of James' passing. I only just met the two of you in your lovely home during the Santa Fe Plein Air Fiesta last year but I had such a memorable conversation with him that it really inspired me. I wish the best for you and your family as you continue the wonderful legacy the two of you built together.

Loving thoughts to JoAnna and family members on the loss of their loved one. May their faith provide the comfort they require in the days ahead and shared memories bring smiles to their faces and joy to their hearts.

Joe Anna, I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved James. During this difficult time may your heart be consoled by the promise our Heavenly Father gives us at John 6:40 where we have the hope of being reunited with James again in the future on a paradise earth. Then the two of you can paint forever together.
