Dear Trish,

We were very saddened to just hear today of Jim's untimely passing. He was a great man and a good friend. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

To the Smallenberger Family,

A friend of mine from Des Moines called and mentioned that Mr. Smallenberger passed away. I wish to extend my sympathies and prayers to you. I remember Mr. Smallenberger from Central Life (now AmerUs Group)when I joined the company thirty years ago. He was very well-liked and respected. I'm sure he will be missed by many.

Dear Trish, Amy, & Mary,
I have so many wonderful memories of your family growing up. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love, Tami (Taylor) Papadopoulos

I'm in my sixties and I see life so very precious and in need of being extended. I find comfort in a thought I recall from the hope that God set before all of us, that there are days coming when we will be able to enjoy life forever in a restored earth. Maybe, you remember what Job said, “Man, born of woman, Is short-lived and glutted with agitation. Like a blossom he has come forth and is cut off." And, James sadly experienced this scene of life's experiences, but Job goes on and gives all...

Dear Trish and family, our prayers are with you during this sad time. We have such wonderful memories of our dear neighbors in Deer Creek. It was a sad day when you moved, but we knew how happy you would be being nearer to your family. May god be with you and carry you during this time. We think of you often and miss you. Hold your family close now and always. Chris, Mary, James, and Mike Risewick

Dear Trish and family,
My deepest heartfelt sympathies at the sad time. I will keep you all in my prayers. May your wonderful memories give you peace.
Love,
Paulette Taylor
