I'm so sorry to hear that Jimmy passed away. I worked on various projects over the years with Jimmy. I always looked forward to and enjoyed him telling it like it was. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Jimmy's family members during these difficult times. I wish I could be there for his services. R.I.P. My Friend.

My sincere condolences to all the Olson family -- but most especially to Polly and Penny. I fondly remember the clan from 60 years ago. The four of us Fratt Brats (me, Polly, Diann Mueller and Jim Griffin) riding the bus home from school each day. Prayers going up right now. Kathie Powers Goblirsch

Paulette, my prayers are with you and your family at this time of loss. I will not be able to attend Sheldon's memorial Mass, but will be keeping you and your family in my thoughts at the time of the Mass.
