Jimmy,
Despite drifting apart, to this day you are one of the best friends that I have ever know. Your warmth and patience were a blessing, your intelligence awe-inspiring, and your humor wittier than most.
I wish I could have said, Thank you for being my friend. The older I get the more I miss you. I wish I could have been there for you, like you were for me through our adolescence.

Jimmy, your warmth and smiling face are missed so very much. Each moment of every day. Love Mom
