Hey, Jim.... You made me laugh and made me feel at home during a difficult time. I will cherrish many happy memories: your black and white cat, the bonfire on the ice, fishing on the lake, introducing me to Quickdraw, that place where they filmed Planet of the Apes, pickling eggs. I will miss you. Rest in peace.
