We are all going to miss you, Jim, especially if we plan to do any fishing or just plain conversation. The kids will miss you most. They all love you very much. Say hello to Granma and Poppa.
As a child growing up in Callicoon, Jimmy would come to our home every year during hunting season with the rest of our "city relatives". Some were serious hunters and the rest were there for the fun and comraderie. Jimmy was so funny and as kids we looked forward to that time of year not only to see the guys but for all the treats they brought us. They always shopped for cakes, ice cream, soda and brought lots of bakery items that we never got any other time of the year. But most of all I just remember Jimmy's kindness and his big smile. When my Mom passed away in 2000, Jimmy came to the wake in Callicoon and it was so good to see him. I had always planned to go to Hawley one day and look him up. Dee and Georgeanne, please accept my sincere condolences. Barbara
