We didn't know you for long, Jim, but still feel your loss keenly. The joining of our families at Rob and Naomi's wedding was wonderful, we're so thankful you were there to celebrate them in full. You leave a great legacy in your boys, and in the love and respect you have earned from so many people.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
