We shared a lot of challenges along the way with our racing, but they were far outweighed by the good times we had racing with Jim. We'll surely miss him!!!

Pat and Angie. I was going to send you a check but I see you want them to go to Hunting Hospice. Is that what you would like me to do? May God bless you and keep you strong.
Love you,
Bill
