Dolores and Jim Cuculich were two of the finest people I ever met. Jim was a craftsman, par excellance, and Dolores was always loving and supportive. Jim built the altar at Saint Emeric, where both of them prayed for all of us who they loved. I am grateful to have known them, and grateful for their continued prayers in glory.
