Sorry that you lost your Dad. He was in the same room at Heartland with my brother, James Simmons. He seemed to care about my brother. I remember him asking how Jim was.
Jim Simmons is still alive and has been in MVH since March 11, 2013. He has been on the edge of death so many times, but the Lord has kept him here.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of knowing Jim from working with him in purchasing at WPAFB. He was one of the kindest, mellow and unassuming people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. I know he'll be missed. My sincerest sympathies for his entire family.
