Dear Jim and Family, I am shocked and saddened to hear of Janet's passing. I still remember the day I met Janet as one of my first patients in my dental practice. She was such a sweetie and had a great sense of humor.
You and I have crossed paths many times over the years, Jim and now in sadness. Please accept our deepest sympathy and sorrow in your loss. Duard and Ardella

I never had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Zerbe, but Jim was a valued customer of mine and my late father for several years. Jim is a fine man, and my heart goes out to him and his family.
