Kim:
So sorry for your loss. I know how much you cared for both of your parents. My heart goes out to you and your mom and the rest of your family. I know first hand how hard it is to lose a parent.....please know you're in my thoughts during this very difficult time.
Much Love, Sue

Jim was a consummate gentleman both on and off the golf course. His battle with Parkinson’s never embittered him. It was sad to see the disease take its toll on him, but his indomitable spirit was a source of inspiration for all of us that were blessed to call him “a golf buddy.”
Kim,
My deepest condolences. No time on earth is time enough to share with those we love or to prepare your heart for their departure. Although his long suffering is over, yours has just changed. No words can really help to ease the loss you bear. No fact problem solution methodology fits. Your dad will always be as close as the joyful memories you have of him. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
May God bless you and your mother with His love and peace during this holiday season and throughout the coming year.
