Remembering is an important part of life. Remember the good times. Remember the laughter. Remember how much love was between you two. By remembering, you will never be apart. Thinking of you during this time. It is still tough, i know. Remembering lessens the pain by reliving the joy. Know that I am thinking of you at this time. Love, Janet

I just found out of Jim's passing. Like many, I had a chance to talk to him mainly at tax time. How many people can say they enjoy having their taxes done? But spending that hour with him was an annual "catch-up" that we both enjoyed. He will be deeply missed.
