Nikki Weeks Minich Three years ago today, Kevin and I started talking again. We had both been so busy with our college lives that we hadn't had a lot of time to speak to each other, but I saw how much he was hurting after Jim passed, and I couldn't stop calling to check on him. We talked about Jim a lot. It was so obvious how much Jim was loved. In a strange way, it ... See Morewas Jim who brought us back together after a long hiatus of not speaking. I have him to thank for reconnecting me with the man who would be my future husband. It's funny the way things play out. I regret never meeting Jim--especially when he means so much to my new, wonderful family--but I love hearing about him. I can't believe it's already been three years. I love you! I'm praying for you guys today
Cindy L Minich Rolled out of bed this morning at 4:30. Ran 6.5 miles with the greatest running group ever. We then went to Starbucks for a quick coffee. Cried on the way home. Told God how much I miss Jim, how much I miss us, how much I hate that Emily doesn't have her Daddy, even though I know he is with him. Got home, made an English muffin with peanut ... See Morebutter and bananas, went up stairs for a quick snuggle with my girl. Then took my breakfast and spent time with God in Bible study. Went up stairs for a warm shower afterwards, thinking, it just doesn't get better than this. Then it hit me, I am so truely blessed. Jim was a wonderful man and I will see him again. Even with the deep gap in my heart that is always there, there is peace knowing that God is truely in control and I like that. And I will forever miss God's sweet Jim. Nikki, what a precious write up. Thank you.
Emy I too cannot believe it's been 3 years... although I didn't know him, I remember how difficult that time was for you. Praying for you all including his wife and daughter.
Thank you Nikki and Emy! Nikki, I too wish you had met Jim, but his "life stories' will live on for a long, long time :) Cindy~ thanks for sharing your morning and thoughts with us. We will be praying that you, Em and all who knew and loved Jim will have a beautiful day today as we remember this wonderful man :)
Chris Minich Even though he is not here, there are reminders of him all around us. I have a hard time getting in and out of the driveway everyday. Miss you Jim ........
