Not sure what to say?

I am sorry to hear that your husband, James passed away. My daughter told me about it, and I 'm sorry to have found out so late after the fact. Please accept my deepest sympathy to you & your famliy, my husband John, passed away Sept 24, 2004. John met James at the first Hurckes Reunion in Union Illinois, and spoke highly of James as does my daughter. I did not get the pleasure of meeting James or yourself, but Ellie speaks highly & fondly of you both.

Bonnie: Please know I am heartbroken to have found out of Jim's passing. From time to time on the internet, I enter in our surname "HURCKES". I saw a link to the Daily Southtown about Congressman Lipinski's Family not being present at Jim's Services. I had to do a double take... and then I feverishly & in vain tried to locate what I could. I found this. Bonnie, my heart & prayers are with you! Jim is my Angel & blessing when it came to doing the genealogy. He is my heart. My sympathies go to...

Dear Jerry, Mary Ann And Family,
We were saddened to here of the passing of your father. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time.
Jim, Wendy,Amanda, Lil and Jimmy Benson

My deepest sympathies to Aunt Bonnie and her entire family.
Uncle Jim was our favorite uncle. An intimidatingly big man with a heart as big as he was.
As little kids we loved going to Uncle Jim and Aunt Bonnie's house. It was always a blast. They were the St. John family's favorite relatives to visit.
On Thursday I didn't count the cars in the procession but there were an awful lot of em weren't there! I'm sure he was smiling the whole way.
He will be missed by...

What a beautiful Mass and eulogy. We are glad we had the opportunity to be with you as you buried your husband, Dad and grandfather.

To: The James Hurckes Family:
You have my sincere thoughts and prayers at this time.
