Condolences
My heart goes out to you at this time of year, thinking about the upcoming holidays! I think of the stories I have heard from Jerry/Uncle Jerry and many in the family about his high-jinxes growing up and of all the hunting expeditions the three brothers took together! He was a great brother-in-law and his impish grin always made me smile! It is comforting to me to know he is beside his beloved Jan, and I will always see his steadfast love and support during her battle and death from breast cancer. In the years since, he has truly been so lost! As you face the remainder of this year, and the years to come, I pray that you will be comforted by memories and stories of him. Some may bring tears to your eyes, but I hope some will be happy tears! Know that your Dad and Grandpa truly loved life big and that his end came on Allan Nichols' terms! Blessings, love, and I sincerely pray for you to have "still waters" (Psalm 23). Junell Nichols
