“My Dear Friends, I can’t tell you shocked I was this morning to hear our dear little Jimmie had gone Home, our Savior had gathered the little Lamb to his own fold. I know how deeply you feel his loss, your beautiful bright boy, one so full of promise, the joy of your hearts and home.
God’s ways are so mysterious to us, dear Jimmie so full of life, the last one of my class who I thought this Christmas would be one of the pure spirits who will now always behold the face of his Father in Heaven.
I am so sorry I can’t see Jimmie once more on this Earth.
