Norma, Michael, Wendy and family. I am so very sorry for your loss of Jim. Jim was always ready to stand with the Richwood Honor Guard for Veteran Funerals and so many other Veteran-related events. I appreciated his willingness to be there when I called upon him. May God watch over you all during this most difficult time.
