Ruth and family,
I am truley sorry for your loss. I was moved to tears by your story on the WGEM telethon, because my mom was diagnosed with the exact same form of Jim's disease at about the same time. God must have known the struggles that both Jim and my mom were having because he took her "home" on the 22 of Dec. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ruth, you and your family are in our thoughts and in our prayers. It was such an honor to have known Jim ~ he was a very sweet and kind man, a loving husband and Dad. He will be so missed but is now Home with our Father, free from disease and praising our Lord!
