Tia Jerusa deixa boas lembranças junto com tio Jim. Eu adolescente em Bristol com as primas Ann e Claudia, hospedada na casa de Veronica. Depois na Europa em paises onde moraram, com passeios inesquecíveis. Mais tarde na Florida e New Mexico sempre recebida com carinho. Lembranças das férias que passaram no Brasil. Agora você foi encontrar tio Jim e que descansem juntos em paz. Vamos ter saudades desses momentos felizes.
