Green means go, Jimmy. I remember you saying that riding in the car and think of it and you every time I am stopped at a red light and it changes. After your service I will go have a DQ at the one on Hwy 61 we went to as kids. So many sweet memories you have left us with. You were so GENUINE. :-* Love you.

To all of you who loved Jim,

My thoughts and prayers I send to you. Do remember God loved him first and now has called him to come home. I never knew Jim nor any of Mary and Harry's children personally, but I knew so many good things about all of them through his Aunt Irma McClellan. Your Mom would be very proud of all of you. Peace. A long time family friend, Deloris Erickson

Dear Kopesky Family,

My deepest condolences at this difficult time for all of you. I remember with fondness, spending time with Diane at her house, as youth, and Jimmy was such a sweet child. My prayers for all of you.

Love,
Jean Anderson
