When I think of Jim I think of a nice cuppa, a Jamie Dodger or two & a good chin wag. How I miss those precious times I spent with him.
I know Jim is at Peace, reunited with Chris & with many more of his loved ones that have gone before him. I have to smile when I speak of him because I know he is no longer suffering & he is exactly where he wanted to be. He wouldn’t want us to be sad.
Rest In Peace my Good Friend.
Love Always Pam xxx
