Jim, during the time I have known you, you have always been dedicated to the care and well-being of your Dad. I admire your tenacity, as well as the relationship you had with him. A lot of us have had no where near the time you were able to share with your Dad. I’m sure he was thankful for your presence, especially when his health began to fail. You were a good son. And you are a good friend. My condolences to you and your family on your Dad’s passing. Eternal rest is now his.
