Thank you very much, Lori. Beautiful graphic. Now the tears are flowing again.
That is a beautiful story of how you and Sheila met. I am so sorry for your loss.
Wonderful story, Jim.
So sorry about your loss.
She will have quite the sendoff on Wednesday. Tributes and love well deserved. May your memories bring you comfort til you are together again. I wish I had known her. BTW was she a Freeper and if so would you share her handle?
I agree...a very good looking couple!
It’s so hard to lose the love of your life.
Prayers and condolences to the family.
Great picture!
Jim, I’m so sorry to hear about Sheila. I so enjoyed her company when we would have our freeps and picnics. I know how it is to lose your soulmate, I lost my Carlos a little over a year ago. I’m sure she’s looking down from heaven on all of your family. My prayers to all of you, and God bless.
Oh,,, Jim that is a great story. So you, cradle robber you! And trying to aid in the delinquency of a minor no less.
I would love to hear Sheila’s version of this story. She and I can talk about it in heaven. I can hear that laugh as she would have walked by. So it took you a while to win her over, eh? Good for her. Looks like you did a good job of wooing her. Especially since she thought that you were rude. Now that is hard to believe.
And I can see the resemblance of Sheila in that picture, but there is no way to connect you with the dude with long blond hair.
I just may know one or two of the people in this picture. Just sayin....
Beautiful photo. RIP to a great patriot.
My heart is heavy for Jim, John and Chris. You all have my prayers. I was very delighted and honored to spend time visiting with Sheila at a TCMS. She was so proud of all of you. God bless each of you.
What a great love story Jim. Why is it guys seem to always know right away the woman they fall “in love at first sight” generally before she does....it’s like God gives you guys a special indicator button!
Similarities can be so shocking at times. Met my wife when she was 14 and married 52 years now. I cannot fathom the loss Jim feels losing such a cornerstone of his life. All my sincerest condolences to him. I am so glad you found that angel and knew it as soon as you saw her. Like you my girl opened a door and I knew immediately what my future was. All my best to you in these hard times. I have no words to describe what I know you feel.
and prayers for you and your beloved family....
I love hearing how 2 people meant to be met. Yours is a charming story.
Thank you for sharing. So deeply sorry for your loss.
Bump for your beautiful post.
Shelia loved patriotic things I understand, so those seemed just right as her funeral is today I understand.
Jim, John, Chris - thank you, bless you. Jesus is living water.
