Cindy, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the girls for the loss of Jim. I hope everything goes well for you. I lost my Mother in Jan 12 and it has been pretty rough for Karen and me.

I was saddened to learn of Jimmy's passing. I worked with Jimmy from 1979 to 1983 at H&S Distributing in Havre de Grace. He was always kind to me. Jimmy was a hard worker and was loved by his customers. As I recall, he loved baseball and he went up to Philadelphia one time and hit a ball out of Connie Mack Stadium. I haven't seen him in decades but I often thought of him over the years. Please accept my sympathies.
