It has been almost three years since I last saw my friend Jim Maguire. I miss him. God bless his wonderful family.

Jim and I met in 1964, and we worked together for many years. He was a wonderful person in every way -- faithful husband, loving father, and true Christian. I was fortunate to know him and call him friend. Heaven is richer now, but I will miss his presence with us. Au revoir, my friend.
