my condolences

Dear Rita, I'm so sorry for all that you have been through. This is a tough world we live in, but Jim is at rest now and that will bring you peace in time. Several of us here at Curves have stood in your shoes (and I know that does not help at all) but we are here to hold you, help you and be any support we can be for you. Much love and prayers, Dot Ashby

Our deepest sympathy to you, Rita and family. We are so sorry for you loss.

Dearest Rita and Children,

It has been our greatest pleasure to get to know Jim, Our "Back Row Baptist" at our church. Jim was always there with a smart answer or a grin. Happy to be next to his bride, and always willing to wiggle a finger at all our little ones. We want you to know that we are proud to have called him a family member. "Big Un" won't be here to send him off, but wants to pass along his love. We have found such wonderful friends in the church and we want you to know that we will continue to pray for you and the family, as well as support you in anything you may need. Rita, we will be right here rooting you on sister. Children, (and grands), You father was a spit fire, and a decent, kind man. We've the knowledge that through Jesus Christ, he'll be waiting in Heaven, until our return home also.

May God Lift you up during this time of Loss, and Know that Jim is beyond any pain and is instead Celebrating Victory over Death with our Heavenly Father! Amen!
