Until I see Jim again in the clouds of glory I will certainly miss my friend Jim. I understand God has a plan for him and reluctantly accept His will. Not only was Jim a friend, but a role model for me as well. If only I could live my life even half as well as the way he lived his! Thank you Lord for giving me such a friend.
