Jim, I'm going to miss your laugh and your generosity. We were so blessed to have you in our lives. I'm so glad you got to take your grandkids to the circus - your first! That is a great memory we will keep forever. God bless you and keep you close.
Love you.

Dad,I do not understand why you had to go, but I know you are in a better place with no more suffering or pain. your heart was huge and full of love for us your family and friends, and I thank God continuously for the last precious months we had together and seeing him open your eyes to the truth of his love, and forgiveness. you are free now, and with Him fully healed and restored. I love you and will miss you deeply, you will always have a place here in our family and in my heart.
The last memory I have of you is us hysterically laughing as we drove to lunch remembering infamous stories of the past, and you told me of your plans for a back yard picnic one of these Sundays after church. We cant wait to attend the ultimate feast with you in heaven.
your loving son
