Read MoreEvery now and then as I am headed down Camano Hill Rd I see a pickup coming toward me and I start to honk and wave. I miss the days when JB would drive by and always wave - anticipating I am in the kitchen and will wave back. I miss you JB and sure do miss you, Lin. You were the best neighbors and JB was always so willing to lend a helping hand when needed.
My love to you, Lin

We are on our way home from Cuba and just learned of JB's passing. He and you were the first two people that we met after moving to Camano Island. We have many fond memories of him especially when Colby was young. We will always treasure our days as next door neighbors.
Love

Lin~
Bill and I share your loss. "JB" was very special. In the short time we neighbors, we were fortunate to have him become part of our lives, we enjoyed having both of you as "the best ever" neighbors and then very good friends.
He will be missed more than words can express. He was our "JB".
Praying for you Lin and your family.
You will always have my love.

Linda,
We were saddened to see the news of Jim's passing in today's paper. Steve and I were thinking about you both a couple of weeks ago. (We were talking to someone from Washington state who owns a condo near ours in Florida.) I am sorry we lost touch with you. We have fond memories of you both, and your beautiful property in Columbia that you lovingly maintained.
Take care of yourself, Steve & Debbie

As I remember you all.
Dear Linda, Jennifer and Colby,
Linda (my wife) and I are so sorry for your loss. We are reminded of your visit to our home during one of your cross-country treks, and my visit to your home on Camano Island in 2010. Best wishes in your new surroundings.
