Dear Lynne and girls, I am surprised to hear of Jim's death, but somehow not at all surprised at his, and surely yours as well, decision to leave this life in such a deliberate and gentle (I hope) way.  Because you are clearsighted, thoughtful people who are brave enough to do what is right for you.  His message conveys such love, generosity, and willingness.   Even so, it must be hard to lose your partner and dad.  Sending you hugs and wishing you peace.  Thanks to him and to you for this beautiful example of grace.

My condolences to Lynne, Alex,  Brooke and to Jim's entire family. He was a joy to know. Gone but not forgotten. Travel well my friend.
