Dear Lynn & Family
Tom and I were both so sorry to hear of your loss of Jim.

You all will be in our thoughts and prayers.

It was an honor and a pleasure to work with Jim and call him my friend.

I remember Jim's smile and laugh. He was generous and spirited. He always gave you the benefit of the doubt. Lynn, I am sending you healing thoughts.
