Jimmy, though you have been gone for 40 years, my thoughts of you return often. Never before or since have Iknown such a friendly, outgoing lover of life. My life is better from knowing you. Greater love hath no man than to lay down his life for another, and that truly means you.~Alan Cantrell, M Co. 3/5
