    JONI, CHRIS AND FAMILY SO SORRY TO HEAR OF JIM'S PASSING. WE WERE NEIGHBORS FOR MANY YEARS. WE ALWAYS GOT A LAUGH WHEN WE THINK BACK OF THE TIME WHEN WE MOVED AND SOLD OUR HOT TUB TO YOUR MOM AND DAD - AND THEY PUT IT IN THEIR FAMILY ROOM. AND SEVERAL YEARS LATER WHEN WE MET I ASKED HIM IF IT WAS STILL THERE AND HE LAUGHED AND SAID '''OF COURSE!" FUN MEMORIES.
