Jim I miss you every day, though we were just "pen pals" and phone buddies.
I will never delete our 2 years of silly daily texts.
I miss your humor and your ridiculous grasp of the English language (and Latin and Greek). You were so brilliant!
I´m so glad we bumped into each other at the grocery store for that one final smile.
I´ll always be thankful for our many discussions about God and His great mercies.
I´ll leave you with one last verse: "There is one mediator between God and man, The Man, Christ Jesus" 1 Timothy 2:5. Goodbye my friend
