    Mary~~~~I am so sad that Jim lost the fight he fought so hard to defeat. Happy Heidi got here from New York to be with you in time. There are no words to say to you as you grieve. I am praying for you to find peace in your heart and realize Jim will be waiting for you up in Heaven. God Bless.

    Mary,
    So sorry to hear of Jim’s passing. I always enjoyed his sense of humor and easy-going lifestyle when in his company. I think of you both often as I see your deeds and contributions to the city of Hutch, mainly in the Leader paper. I always felt that if I had stayed in Hutch I would have had the chance to be in your and Jim’s circle of friends. I’m glad to have known you both over the years.
    Our deepest sympathy,
    Bob and Linda Randall

    Mary, I was saddened to hear of Jim’s passing. I have many happy memories of the Christiansen family. As a teenager I did housekeeping for Esther and I remember Jim as being very warm, fun, and kind. I hope the many happy memories you made together help comfort you during this very difficult time.
