Laura, So sorry for your loss. Although I met your dad only once; at your wedding, his kind and gentle manner left an impression on me and I am happy that I had the chance to meet such a nice person. He did an outstanding job raising the lovely and delightful lady you turned out to be. His spirit will live on forever near you - remember this and take comfort in that knowledge.

I was saddened to hear the heartbreaking news of Jim's passing. I enjoyed Jim's company very much at McCormick Home. His warm smile and fun loving laugh made him a delight to be around. I will always remember Jim as an intelligent and humorous person and he will be sorely missed at McCormick. Chaplain Jason Snelgrove
