A good friend, a good man, I will miss him.
I was sad to hear about Jim. I'm glad that I got to spend time with the both of you when you came to VA. I pray God gives you strength and that you find comfort knowing that you will see him again in Heaven. Love you Shana
Our love and sympathy goes out to you all. We're praying for God to give you strength We love you Janet and Billy
To my dear sister Barbara I'm praying for you and family that God will comfort you and strengthen you. We treasure all the time that we have spent with you and Jim. We will miss him here but we will have a reunion in Heaven. We have that to look forward to. You are always in my prayers and thoughts and I love you very much. God be with you now and always. Love you Wanda and Donnie
Our deepest condolences for your lost. We know you did not just lose a husband of 55 years but your best friend. As you stated on the phone you know where Jim is going. We don't always understand but God has the plan for us all. Jim will truly be missed but know that he will be waiting and ready to see us all again in a better place. We will pray for your peace and tranquility during this confusing and untimely lost. May God be with you.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. We may be many miles away, but you are always in our hearts.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; but love leaves a memory no one can steal. with Love, Wendell & Claire
My deepest sympathy to you and your family during this difficult time of bereavement. The Bible offers us comfort by reminding us that "God is close to the brokenhearted," (2 Corinthians 1:3). It also promises that “he will wipe away all tears from our eyes and death will be no more,” (Revelation 21:4). Please have faith and trust in God that your loved one will be resurrected (John 6:40).
