Not sure what to say?

I am saddened to suddenly become aware of the passing of my former husband, Jim, (Jaime). Prayers and condolences to John, Annie, and Marybeth.

I'd read some of the articles in the Boston Globe with him and do some trivia. He was such a joy to talk to and such a smart man. I'm not surprised to...

John and Family, So sorry to read this about you brother and twin, Jim. Sincere sympathy. May he Rest In Peace. Sincerely, Rosemary Shrude Davidson CHS `61
