Our sincerest condolences to Nicola, James H., Tara, and Mathew. Though we haven't seen Jim since our Aunt Sue died over 10 years ago, he , his family and brothers and sister have always been in our hearts and prayers. We were all close as youngsters and the days at our grandparents farm were some of the most memorable and happiest for all of us then. Unfortunately, life's tragedies move in and change our circumstances and left distance, jobs, children, our own paths to change the closeness of what once was. But it didn't change the love of family, or the precious memories or the grief that we now share. Sue, Jerry, Jeff, and John
(and families), our hearts are so sad for your loss of your brother and please except our deepest sympathies. I know you also share our joy at the same time knowing that he is at peace and in the presences of the LORD and also in the loving arms of your mom and dad, my dad & brother, grandma & grandpa, aunts,uncles and cousins. What a wonderful welcome he received ! GODS peace and comfort to all of you. With much love, Aunt Norma (Uncle Don passed), Jan, Ann (John), Don jr. (Debbie), Pam(Ron passed), Danny, & Rodney .
