Eric, Lori and Pat
I was saddened to read of Jimmy's passing. Although we had lost touch, I have many fond memories of days in the Central Park playground at 72nd Street, our children playing with you. I hope that your memories of growing up and beyond with your father help you get past this unhappy moment.
With Love,
Stephanie and Jon Reckler
