Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Jim's death today when the 11/4 issue of the Milton Times arrived. Jim dad, his dad's brothers and sister were my mother's beloved and respected cousins. My sincerest condolences to Jim's relatives.

Your MMA classmates will not forget you. We visited you during our recent reunions and we all smiled and laughed together remembering good times.I could only find one picture..........Ed Adamson '65
