Susan, I am so sorry for your loss. Jim was a familiar presence at dog shows. I had many fun chats with him when I lived on the East Coast. May your memories be warm and close, Sincerely, Kerrie Bryan, Australia

Will always remember our meet up when you and Jim brought Zadoc to meet me that morning in August 2014. He had a great sense of humour and followed my journey with Zadoc and the other paws always encouraging. I can only imagine their meet up now on high.May peace find you and may the memories of a life shared remain in your heart and soul forever.
