Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
Joyce, I don´t know if you remember me or not but my husband Jim worked with your Jim on the railroad he used to come to our house and the guys would get together to visit or work on something.
I always wondered if you still lived in Quincy I always thought a lot of Jim and you.
Keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
