I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Jim when he was shrimping. He would come by our house with shrimp special delivery. The girls would be so excited to see him. He was such a special man with such kindness and gentleness. I have missed him and thought of him often. I hope your sadness can give way to the good memories of a good man.

We thought of you with love today but that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday and the day before that too. We think of you in silence we often speak your name. Now all we have are memories and your picture in a frame. Nothing can be more beautiful than the memories we have of you.
To us you were so special God must have thought so too. If we could have a lifetime wish, a dream that would come true, we would pray to God with all our hearts for yesterday and you. A thousand words can't bring you back, we know because we've tried, we know because we've cried. You left behind our broken hearts and happy memories too, but we never wanted memories, we only wanted you.
The Angels had one of their own returned. We miss you today more than words can express. We love you so much, but God loves you Best. We really Miss you, everything about you, your smiling face. But we know there's a higher power that we answer to and you heard Him calling your name. We miss you buddy We miss you friend Our love for you will never end.
This day is remembered and quietly kept, No words are needed, we shall never forget, For those we love don't go away, They walk beside us every day. Unseen and unheard, but always near, so loved, so missed, and so very dear.


From Jeroid and the Ravenel family,

We miss and will never forget you….
