Linda, Brian, Crissy, & Becky, " Unfortunately, we are unable to pay our respects. Ryan is on call & working without being able to get off. We want to let you all know how much we love you. Although we cannot be with you during this trying time in your lives, our hearts, thoughts, & prayers are with you. I can personally attest to the importance of what Uncle Jim has gone through. This is due to Ryan's attentiviness to what he saw on my skin and avidly making my appointment with the dermertologist because I was at stage 2 which progesses quickly from there, as you all already know. We love you all more than you will ever know. We want you to know that WHATEVER you need, how miminal or maximum, we are here for you all!!! Love always & forever, Ryan, Dianne, Deven, & Dylan Grose OUR HEARTS ARE WITH YOU!
