    Bob & Mary, I’m so sorry about the loss of your son. Having lost my son Derek I know the tremendous loss of a child. But I know he’s there with the Lord & I’ll see him someday again. God bless you.

    Bob and Penny — our prayers are with you as we thank Jesus for the gift of Jim. He was on loan to us for such a short time. Now he is happy forever in heaven! Peace to you.

    I am so saddened to hear this news. I loved having “Jimmy” in class in his early days at QND. He was kind, polite, and helped me many times clean up the labs. I will pray that God gives you the strength you need in the days ahead and that HE will fill your minds, hearts, and souls with only the great memories you shared with Jim.

    God Bless,
    Lonny
