Rita,
Thank you for the GREAT pictures!! I just talked with Jim's Mother on the telephone and she reminded me to enjoy each &amp; everyday because we do not know what life holds for us. Just looking at Jim just last year is living proof of that.
Wilma,
Thank you also for the kind words for Jim.
Thank you,
Dennis
