  1. Dear Betty, I am so sorry to read of Jim’s passing. I hope you are as well as can be expected and I pray that you and Bobby are helping each other get through the tough days.

    As you may have seen on this same website, my beloved Peter, for whom you worked so many years died on Sept. 2. Jim and Peter were almost exactly the same age. We shall both miss our men dearly. My best to your family, Betsy Demir
