Uncle Jim,
You will be forever in our hearts and on our mind. Gone far too soon…. We will cherish the memories that we’ve had together and make sure Callie grows up knowing about her beloved great-uncle who cared for her so much. Thank you for encouraging her connection with Jesus from such a young age. May you rest in peace. We love you.
