Personal note from Jim's wife Kris and his sons Sam and Mike

9/12/23
Little did I realize that creating a memorial tribute for my best friend, my confidant, my soulmate, my beloved husband, would be so healing yet so emotionally overwhelming at the same time.

Throughout our journey, our faith has always been the bedrock of our relationship. As
a math teacher, I can't help but create an equation that sums up our life: Jim + God + Kris = the secret of a beautiful life together. I draw strength knowing that my precious love is in heaven hanging out with Jesus, his dad Sam, and all of our loved ones who have gone before him.

If you have a scripture that you would like to share, something my family and I can hold onto during this challenging chapter of our lives, I would really appreciate it.

Love you all and thank you again for all of your continued prayers, love, and unwavering support!

~Kris
