Dearest Haw and Garrity family,
My mother, Bonnie Jean and I are deeply saddened with the news of Uncle Jim's passing. My brother Jimmie called to let me know. He was such a wonderful man and I know I will never forget all the wonderful family Christmas' spent with him and you all. I always remember him laughing and smiling. We are so very sorry we couldn't make it to the services. We have him and you all in our heart and prayers as we truly understand how hard it is and how much it hurts and send our love to each and everyone of you. He will be dearly missed and always, fondly remembered. All our love, Bonnie, Cheryle and Bonnie Jean.
