Dear Jim,
We spent 18 years together- so many memories- many good- a few not so. But I know that you loved me and I loved you. I hope you have finally found peace ❤️
My deepest condolences to Jim’s family and long time girlfriend Becky. Jim was always so generous with the gifts from his garden. There wasn’t a summer day visit that I left without bags of amazing homegrown vegetables. It was such a kindness to his vegetarian friend. Peace be with you Jim.
Sending love to Jim’s family. He treated me like a daughter, looked out for me, sent me home with tons of vegetables from his garden, and gave me a hard time about everything. Nothing better than actually getting a little grin from him even though he was trying not to. A very special man, and I’m so happy I knew him.
