Goodbye Jim

All, it is with a heavy heart that I write this update. This morning at approximately 2:45 CST John's older brother Jim passed away. John is holding up, but I know that the next few weeks are going to be difficult for him, and the rest of his family. At this time, we do not know what the plans are. John's parents will stay in Connecticut for a little while longer while they, and Jack, settle some of Jim's affairs. Sometime in the next few weeks, a memorial will be held for Jim, most likely in Baton Rouge. Jim was loved by many and will be sorely missed.

Thank you for the update. We will be praying for a peaceful goodbye and a memorial that will rejoice in the life that Jim lived. It sounds like he touched many people's lives in a good way. Please let Uncle John know we are praying for him and quick grieving process.
