See Condolences

Wanted to send condolences to you and the entire family. I really liked your father. May the lord give you peace at this difficult moment. ?

My deepest regards to all who loved my brother. We had many memories that were shared through our lives. He suffered in silence and accepted his end with dignity and quiet endurance. I can still hear his voice in my mind saying "it'll do you no good to complain, it's best to accept what you can't change." I wish I'd had more time to spend with him, but I am grateful for the years I had. God bless

Sorry to learn of Uncle Jim's passing. He will be missed.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
