Jim's Memorial

My brother Jim pass away on Feb. 14, 2012 at the age of 60. Who would have guess that he would go at such a young age. He was active and fit. We can never take too much for granted. We need to live every day knowing that it is a gift. Jim enjoyed life and that is depicted in the picture below. This picture was taken two months before Jim died. It was at my sister Mary's memorial service. Jim is the second from the right. I just had to include this because it was the last time that all 5 of us were together.
This picture was taken at Jim's memorial service in Playa del Rey. The table has his motorcycle helmet, skateboard, skis and volleyball. They were some of Jim's favorite things.
Jim's son Jared and daughter Christie spoke at the service.
Here is Jim's wife Diann with Jared.
This is Sue G. holding the newest member of our family Paige.

We headed across the street to the beach to watch the sunset.




Here are two fun people: Katie and Jeffy (Jim's son)
