    I’ve just learned of your dad’s passing and I am so saddened. My sympathy to you all. Jim and your mom were such special friends for so many years. Nan and I were college roommates who stayed in close touch for all those years. I still miss her. I had a lovely phone visit with Jim about six months ago. Losing old friends is so hard, and I send my love and sympathy to all of you in your loss.
    Maggie
