To our dear friend Jim & family,
We miss you so much. The church and activities are not the same without you. You were truly a wonderful person! We know you’ve found your friends in heaven, and brought them Mountain Tea from Roumeli to share all together. We will never forget you. Walk now next to the Lord, and rest easy.
Polette & John Limantzakis
May his memory be eternal.
