Bobbi, I remember Jim and you from my years living in California, and coming to your house with Bobbie Jones, my sister. Your Jim's personality was larger than life and you had what seemed like a house full of little boys. I realize there were only 3 + Mike. At the time it felt like many. I was afraid I was going to be asked to babysit for you like I used to keep Mike Jones and Donald Paukert. I'm sorry to learn about Jim's death. I know something of the grief you face since my husband departed this earth also but I take solace in knowing he is in Heaven and a healthy happy soul. I can't say anything to make it feel better for you but having your boys and grandchildren is good. One last thing, if you still have that spectacular laugh that I loved, may you use it for years and years to come. God bless you and keep you and comfort you is my prayer. With love, Paula Smith Grisham 115 Wildwood Drive Ripley, Mississippi 38663
