    Jimmy told me recently that he was my favorite nephew – little did we know 2 mos ago what lied ahead. Cathy – I hope you can feel the love I’m including with this message. Jimmy – be at peace. No more pain, no more hospitals, only peace in the loving kingdom of God! Love you! Until we meet again……

    Nothing can fill the void u have left in my heart, Dad. We were supposed to have so much more time. So many more memories. I need you now more than ever. My only solace is knowing u are with Gma, Gpa, Uncle Bill & Uncle Ronnie now. I know you’re no longer in pain. I will never stop fighting to honor your wishes and I will never ever stop missing you & loving you. Rest In Paradise, Daddy.

    I only met Cathy & Jim recently upon my move to Missouri to get my hubby near his children. Jim was so nice to me… I enjoyed several great conversations with him.. he made me feel right at home. I could tell by the way he looked at Cathy that he adored her…. and she him. I know we are never really prepared for the loss..I take peace in knowing that he is no longer in pain.. Cathy, just take peace knowing that him and brother are sitting on a cloud watching over you. You have your angels.
