Not sure what to say?

May 17, 2012 (1 yr anniversary)
I love you Ray....I did from the day I brought you on to this earth; until you left to be with our Lord. Please make a place for me up in Heaven right next to you and our two Jims!
Mom...

I will remember moments like this forever! We love and miss you and Nana so much! Brendon, Nana, Uncle Bren and Uncle Jim.

It's a bittersweet thing to be back in touch, and discover that I have lost a cousin that I hardly knew, and an uncle whom I would like very much to have known.
I have been praying that our Lord gives you peace and comfort Aunt Win.

I can still remember Jim standing next to the family station-wagon in his driveway, with his Elvis styled DA haircut pegged pants, black short sleaved shirt ,with his cigs rolled-up in the sleave on Harper avenue on the south side of Chicago. Thank GOD for Great Memories.

Jim was a beautiful person. One that would do anything to help anyone at anytime. A loving husband and father and a friend to everyone. I felt blessed to know him. I will miss him.

A lovely tribute to what sounds like an amazing gentleman. I'll always regret not meeting him, but I'm glad you had time (albeit too short), with him. I know you'll carry those memories forever in your heart.

We love you Win--

It appears Jim was quite a romantic and I can understand how he melted your heart and swept you away. He's the kind of man all women should meet. Anyone who can express how much he loves you and then chases you until he catches you is a winner!

I'm sorry for your two losses Win. I know Jim and Ray were your loves and I can only imagine how much sadness you are feeling. I send my blessings to you and the rest of the family. Please give them my regards.

Love Always,...

I am doing the best I can dealing with this sorrow; 17 years ago I lost a husband named Jim, but losing my son; It's unbearable! A man named Jim, who I knew since we were kids, steps back into my life and now he's gone?? I just don't think this was fair...but I do believe in a loving God and know there is a reason for every Season in life. This is just a very sad one for me.

Jim was in ICU for nine weeks from Wednesday after Mother's day until the eleventh of July. My son, Ray...
