Jim, life is a journey.  Along the way, we are honored to be able to walk
together and help each other along the way.  I have been honored to be even
a small part of your life.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  Miracles can happen,
doctors can be wrong, so we will pray for that.
We need to make the most of every day.  We all never know when our journey
will take a turn.
Thank you for being part of my journey.

If you want to take a look at my own personal journey and looking forward
to my destination you can find my thoughts on that here:

My thoughts and prayers are with you,
Sincerely,
Ken Wilford
