Jim,sorry to hear of your loss. It is tough enough losing one parent but double tough losing both so close in time. May God bless you with comfort and joy and don't be afraid to sit down at the steel and play when you need to, it can be great therapy, I know from experience. Hang in there and know we all love you and are praying for you.

Jimbo my brother,
I just now read the heartbreaking news of "Pops" leaving us. I just got back online and read the news after being off for a time. Rest assured that you were a good and loving son when you were needed so desperately. We feel that he was our
Pops as well and grieve along side of you. May God grant you peace and comfort in this trying time.
Just remember,

Dear Jim, We send you our sincerest condolences in this time of pain. Please know you are in our prayers brother. I salute you for rising to the call some years ago for not only relocating 3,000+ miles, but to tend to your father's health needs all the years following. You made great sacrifices and that shows the kind of gentleman you are. Your unconditional love not only speaks volumes about your selflessness and generosity but the fact that you are standup in every regard. It is an honor to call you a friend. We wish you God's Speed in your healing and please stay in touch if you get some spare time. Take care Jimbo. Always, Steve and Cindy Raulston

p.s. I apologize for this belated response.
