Charles/Jean I sent an earlier message on the guestbook but I don't think it went through. Just wanted to let you know how sorry I was to read about Jimmie's passing in this morning's paper. He was a fun, lovable guy who loved dancing and was very good at it. He will be missed by many!

Charles/Jean,

So sorry to read about Jimmie in the paper this morning. I will always remember what enjoyment he got out of dancing and was so good at it. I always enjoyed dancing with him at the Silver Moon. I know you will miss him. Won't be able to make the visitation but you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
