Dearest Petey,
You and your family have our deepest sympathy. So many years have gone by, yet you and Jim have remained friends in our hearts. Very recently we were speaking of you two (in a most loving and fond way) and telling of a very funny incident when we went up to Toledo to visit Jim. You have always been a special part of our lives and please know that our prayers are with you in your time of loss.
With love,
Terri and Norman Frank

Petey, Jami, Joy, Jimmy,

My heart is heavy knowing the pain you are experiencing. It does get better as the days go on though you always remember. Jamie, Jenny, Joe'l and I as little kids would look up at planes in the sky, calling out 'Uncle Jim' and waving our arms like crazy, hoping that Uncle Jim would wave the planes wings back and forth to us. Mom started us doing that! Now I'll look up at the sky and call out hello to them both. I pray for and with you all.

With all my love,
Jinger

We love you,
Pat and John Casey
