To One In Sorrow; Let me come in where you are weeping friend; And let me take your hand; Let me come in--I would be very still; beside you in your grief; I would not bid you cease your weeping friend; Tears bring relief; Let me come in--I would only breathe a prayer; and hold your hand. I have not known a sorrow such as yours--but try to understand. Grace Noll Crowell - Posted by: Carol Schindel (Co-Worker) on: Apr 13, 2005

I am the supervisor for the insurance division of Speedy Glass for Canada and the USA. I am having a hard time even believing that this has happened. Jim was great to work with and I had the utmost respect for him. He was always so helpful and so pleasant. I will truly miss him. My heartfelt sympathy to all of Jim's family.
