Jim, it's been 9 years already, and you are remembered always by all of us here, friends and family.
Continue to rest easy secure in the knowledge of all the love we shared, the memories we had from birth, and how we are never truly separated in the spirit, but remain united for all time to come, and beyond, until we are all reunited in God's care once again.

April 7, 2016

My sincere sympathy to your family. May the God of all comfort be with your family in your time of grief.

Sending prayers and positive vibes to all of y'all.. <3 ... Much love, Harry "GOONER" Brooks
