    Jim,
    You and your wife leave a wonderful legacy. I have memories of you from the 1950’s (I was probably 7 or 8 at the time), you and Joan were such kind people and I recognized it at an early age. After we moved from Fremont in 1959 I didn’t see you again until my aunt’s viewing (Mariam Karlovetz) and I recognized you two immediately (40+ years later). Proof that you two were “special”. I remember my mother coming to introduce us, but were were past that already!!
    You now have two Joan’s watching over you and your family supporting you. God bless you.

    To Joan’s family. May she rest in peace. I visited her home many times with Sonny (boyhood friends).

    She was always very gracious.
