To My NY Cousins:
I'm so very sorry to hear about Uncle Jimmy. I have fabulous memories of his booming voice and love of life. Your family's visits to Erie were always looked forward to. He and Aunt Alice are reunited, and somewhere in heaven is a fun party going down. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
