I have many special memories of Jim and the time we spent together. The weekend we spent up at Lake Geneva, the bowling league, and all the times just relaxing and enjoying each other's company. It will be these memories that will keep Jim & Danny alive forever in our hearts. In case you haven't heard Danny passed away June 23, 2010.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
