Dot and Family, Jim was always a favorite of mine and I hope my Birthday Card got to him in time for him to see it. The only comfort right now comes from a real Faith in the Sovereignty of God and the manifested concern of caring friends. Please know we are thinking of you!
Our Prayers and thoughts are with you all in this time of sorrow. We Love you!
