I am sad to read of Jim’s passing. I enjoyed talking with him and Mary whenever they were over to the Oversons. Your parents were very nice people just like Jerry and Arlene. I hope that you take comfort in knowing that your parents are together again. Prayers to all of you.
We are so very sorry for your loss. We hope the memories you have will help lighten your sadness. You are in our prayers. Tom and Carol Bernett
