Joan,
I'm so sorry to learn about Jim. He always had a friendly word for me when we would meet in the hall. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Mo,
I never met your Dad but the stories you have told me about him have always put a smile on my face. Now, he will be putting smiles on the faces in heaven.
Love,

To the family of Jim,
I am sorry to hear about your loss. I know it has been a long time since we have met up in Oklee, but I never will forget how Jim taught me how to make the perfect airplane or all the fun we had when you were on a visit. He meant a lot to our family especially my father (Tim).
May God bless you all.

Joan,
My Dad was very blessed to have exactly 27 years with you. You were a wonderful wife to him. You also are a wonderful Stepmother.
May it give you comfort knowing my dad is with our Lord. He also is now with Jim. I am sure he will still be watching you from above. Kind of like Big Brother. :)
It's been wonderful, to have you as part of our family. You are in my prayers and thoughts.
Love,
Mary Kay Whalen
