Jackie, Sarah, Ken, and Justin,
I want you all to know how much Jim meant to me. He was more than a brother - he was my very best friend, who was always there for me. I know he loved you all so very, very much and was so proud to be a Jimpa! I was so proud of him and his work with stone, cars, and iron, but his family always came first. We had great bike rides and adventures together. During those times and his visits, he taught me a lot that will stay with me forever. I found a quote that I think fits Jim: "and this our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones..." (Shakespeare). I will miss Jim so much, but hope we all stay close. Please know that I will always be here for all of you. All my love,Peg
