Jan & Family, Just want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I remember when I sent him a Get Well card with a cat on it and told him he had used only one of his nine lives and that he still had 8 more to go! He took a long time to use those eight lives! He had a lot of ups and downs during those years, but he took a lot of wonderful memories with him. Lots of love, Rich and Sandi

Janice, Bill & I are so sorry to hear about Jim. Bill continues to tell stories about their time together at US Steel. We had lost touch as both of us moved several times over the years. Please accept our condolences and please contact us.

We are so sorry to hear of his passing. We were neighbors when you lived in Yorktown and always enjoyed your family and my boys are friends of John's. Know you are in our prayers and if there's anything I can do for your family please let me know.
