Uncle Jim

Our family lost a great man last night. My Uncle Jim passed away with his "greatest catch" (as he used to joke since he was a fisherman) my Aunt Deb, his sweet daughter Ashleigh and my mom by his side. I used to love to call Uncle Jim, he would always say well Jess, do you have a minute and we would talk forever. About anything. How great orange blossoms smelled, something he had watched on TV, how you can never go wrong with a good Cabernet or my grand ideas for some carpentry project in my house, which his idea and finished product was a million times better than I could have thought of. My heart breaks that we have lost a man who made everything better.
