Kathryn Edwards wrote a sympathy message

“My sincere condolences on the loss of my cousin Jimmy, especially to his devoted wife, Connie, Gordon, and other close family/friends who loved him. I have very fond memories of Jimmy-- family gatherings growing up together, and later as adults--his wonderful sense of humor, good nature, and fun company! His passing, following a very difficult, prolonged illness, is no doubt a blessing in that he is no longer suffering, But I know it is also a great loss for you all. Love, Kathryn Edwards”
