Grandpa~
Dad & I went Thursday to get matching tattoos in your honor. I SOOO wish that you & I could have went and gotten our matching tattoos that we were supposed to get, but I suppose that wasn't in God's plan. I miss you SOOOOO much and NOTHING is EVER going to be the same. After getting our tats Mom & Dad and I went to the cemetary to visit you and then to see Gram.......the house just feels so different without you there. I miss you and love you soooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!
All of My Love,
Your "Jesi James"

I am saddened to hear of your loss. I was just looking at old pictures today of our softball team the BlueJays. Pictured were Mr. Ringer, our coach, and Yvonne. My memories of him are happy ones. He was a kind man and good with his players. Please accept our sympathy in your loss.

It takes a long time to get used to the loss of someone we love. But it's important to remember that when people die, they leave something very special behind.... They leave us memories of many things they said and did. And as long as we have those memories, the people we love will live on in our hearts and minds. We will miss you Jim.

It is very difficult to express the words that state what Jim meant to me. If he were here I'm sure he would make up a word for me. Just know that Jim was very special to me and will always be in my heart. He has been a part of my life and my family since the day I met him and his wonderful wife Judy, I will keep a part of Jim with me always.
