Judy and Jolee: So sorry to hear of your loss. My heart goes out to you.
Judy – Heartfelt sympathy to you and your family during this difficult time. It it so painful to lose a loved one. May you be comforted with happy memories of Jim and your time together.
Judy, You are a very special lady and friend and I know that only time will help heal the void. It is wonderful that you and Jim had some time to enjoy your retirement years together and those good memories will sustain you.
Judy and Family I was a classmate with Jim since the 7th grade and a co worker at Charco’s. We also were hunting and fishing buddies as long as I can remember. The last time I saw Jim was at Rocky Ford fishing area, where we always went when it was raining to catch channel cat with the livers we got from Charco’s. Many enjoyable hours spent in the 57 Chevy drinking beer and having a good old time after work. Sorry I never made it to catch crappe with him at ElDorado Lake. My deepest condolences to you and your family. We know Jan from here in Manhattan.
Dear Judy and Family ~ May God be with you all during this time of loss and sadness. Jim is now with ‘The Father’ in Paradise, as we will be someday also. Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers. An Old Classmate from Manhattan, Gale (Ray) Beal
