James L. Shanks

Dad, we were so fortunate to have you in our lives. There are so many memories to treasure. Patrick and I will always cherish the six months you lived with us before God called you to heaven. Morning game shows, afternoon dominoes games and watching Jeopardy became part of our daily rhythm. We miss you at our dinner table each evening. We miss the daily conversations on books, politics, family, love, old memories, your worries. We miss your sweetness as you faced the health challenges...
