Comment: Remember the "good old days" in Ridgewood? Your picture says you have aged pretty well. I remember you as the only person I ever knew who trapped. Happy Birthday and best wishes. May the next 50 treat you well.

Comment: Hey li'l Jimmy,

So you're 50, huh? That makes you officially an antique,ya know. Yep. An antique. Don't worry, I'll be joining you in a few days(if that's any consolation). Anyway, I just wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday and many more. You've been a good bud (and for a very long time)
and among other things, thanks for playing all those great songs so I could 'warble'. If I practice enough, maybe someday I can return the favor.

Comment: Part 1
Dad has memories of Lake Catherine and fishing... Well I remember calling you to see a "big" fish I had caught out in that lake. Knowing that you'd come a runnin' to see another prized catch, I quietly closed the sliding glass door and watched you tear thru the living room, past the kitchen, past the dining room,

and into that sliding glass door for my amusement. Wonder if the subsequent protectively applied palm tree decoration still adorns that sliding glass door and immortalizes what a great little brother had to tolerale from his jerk big brother.

Love and a big hug,

Comment: Happy Birthday Daddy. Wow, 50 years old and still looking as young as ever. I hope I have those genes. I just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how much I appreciate all the love and support you have given me for almost 22 years. I love you so much you will never know. Have a blast on your birthday and just remember, just because you are 50 doesn't mean your life is half over. It's only half begun. Love, Casey

Comment: Happy # 50 Jim –
The pictures are nostalgic and happy reminders of times past: some from long ago and some from recent times. The recent times include our trip to Italy, a birthday celebration in New Jersey and your handsome formal picture. The more distant past includes a picture with your older brother Tom and your younger sister Jane (one of my favorites).
The picture of you, behind your grandparents home in Florida, with your prize bass caught in Lake Catherine is another favorite. K
