Due to road conditions I can't be there today. Please know that I am thinking of Jim, and all the fun we had for 46 years. The laughter, tears, good times and bad, Jim was always there. I can't believe he is gone, I'm just plain shocked. But I have to believe God called him home, and I cannot question Him. I will see you one day Jim, and we'll be smiling once again. Rest in paradise....Love you
