Dear Jimmie,

My heart goes out to you and your family during this very difficult time. I will always remember the wonderful time Ray and I had with you and Gordon, and friends at your home for the "celebration of our wedding dinner", and how much Ray enjoyed talking to Gordon about their military experiences. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Love, Beverly and Ray Pettway
