Joyce (mom) Time moves so fast but all the years we have known each other is always bright in my mine. The one thing that really came to mined today with all the tears was when I was able to call Jim Barney. That woodchuck was a hoot. Things don't pass easy but time moves forward a day at a time. I've asked Lisa to watch over Jim and all of us. The Reding bunch has been a big part of the Orwoll family. God Bless.
Love you always.

A traditional harmonica tune, "Red River Valley" a standard for all harmonica players is so poignant at this time, and also describes Jim to a tee.
The lyrics read:
From this valley they say
you are going,
We will miss your bright eyes
and sweet smile.
For they say you are taking the sunshine,
That has brightened our pathways for a while.
We'll miss you, Jim.
