Dear Becky, I'm so sorry to hear that your husband died. The way Jim held your hand, kissed you gently at the sign of peace at Mass, and held the door for you was a beautiful example for all couples who were lucky enough to see it. May your conversations with him now that he is in Heaven continue, even if you don't hear his voice. Love and prayers,
Jane and Mike Kolf
