To the family of Uncle Jim and to Aunt Susie, I´m so very sorry for your loss. Uncle Jim was such a wonderful man and loved everyone, he showed how much he loved and cared for all my boys and myself through his unconditional love and support. He brought joy, lots of laughter and the best hugs always to all of us. I know he was so excited to meet baby Natalie but never got the chance because of becoming sick. But I know he´s smiling down on her from heaven now. He is truly the kindest, sweetest man I´ve ever known, with an infectious laugh and smile that made everyone´s day better. I´ll never forget all of our talks on the phone , all the times he rescued me and helped me with anything I needed around the house, all the times he was so generous and would come mow my lawn or plow me out in the winter storms without my even asking. I remember looking out the window and just knew it was him who did that for me and saying to myself , "oh my God, Uncle Jim is so wonderful , I just love him so much!" We all love you so very much Uncle Jim, you will be forever missed.
Love Always, Emily, Frank, Jared, Matt, Dev, Alex, Mike and Natalie
