Jimmy, had you been with us in Ellijay, GA this past weekend for Grant and Hope's wedding, we could have celebrated your Birthday. It was a grand event with over 100 guests. Noelle and John out did themselves with their gracious hospitality at their beautiful hill top home, for Kassie and me plus your sister Nancy. What a wonderful wedding celebration held at the near by Deep South Farm. Totally Fantastic. I'm sure you watched it all from Heaven. Happy Birthday Jim, we all miss you and know you are totally blessed in your new surroundings. Love, Ray and Kassie.

Jimmy, I know God has set you free to enjoy the best ball game you ever played. I'll bet He has selected all your favorite Big League players, who have gone before you, to join you in this heavenly game. I know you'll hit a home run with the bases loaded every time your at bat. I can also hear the crowd cheering you home. I'm blessed to have known you.
