Our dear dear Ones This should have been sent to you before today yet please know that you have been in my heart and close even though we are so far apart. It's hard for me to imagine that dear Jim is no longer here with us and hard to picture the home without him. As I type I remember times with you all, precious, precious memories. Jim throws us the torch of truth and love and we want to hold it high. His Christlike example continues to be ours to uphold and Jim's example too helps us to know how. I know you've all felt and proved God's comfort and will continue to feel it and little by little life does go on... This comes with deep sympathy and heartfelt love from your old friend, Sharon

Dear Edna, Barry & Megan, Jeanette & Irvin and families and friends: Please accept my sympathy in your/our dear Jim's passing. We valued his fellowship through the years and in ways we still do; perhaps his testimony is like Joshua's testimony. It over lived him for many years as an inspiration to many. It was so special to be with you all a few times last year while in ON. I carry many happy memories. We wish you good comfort these days and more. "Sweet to know the gospel story." Sincerely, Leslie Beddoe
