Jim, my heart goes out to you and your family. I will keep you in my prayers. Just take one day at a time that’s all you can do. I know what it’s like to lose a parent as well as spouse. I know what you’re going through and if you need to talk I’m here.

Dear Jimmy and family,
Jimmy, I’m so sorry to hear about your Mom. Loved working with her at DuPont….she kept me laughing for many years! I know the heartbreak and pain you are going through as I just lost my husband 3/4. It’s not an easy thing to go through and I’m keeping you in my prayers.

Thinking of you today Jim and wishing I could be there to hold your hand and give you a hug to help you get through this day. Mit was like a mother to me and I cherish all the good and some not-so-good times we’ve shared with you and your parents. She’s reunited with your dad now. Love you Mit.
