  7. I love everyone of you, and you have my deepest sympathy! Remember eye hath not seen nor ear heard nor has it entered into the heart of man what Smokey is seeing now!
    He loved the Lord Jesus!

  8. Jim has been my ‘across the street’ neighbor for many years and always brightened my days by the beautiful flowers and trees he kept so nice in his yard. It has only been a few months since I sat and talked with him at our other neighbor’s funeral and just like Jim said to me that day we never know how soon – we just need to be ready and we thank God for that assurance. My prayers are with the family as I will miss him also ‘seeing Jim sitting on his porch’ as I drive up the road. If you are lucky enough to have a good neighbor you are blessed to have one for 30 years.

  9. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time.
    May the Lord bring you comfort and peace.

    Jeff, Beverly & Jared Gibbs
