Hello to the Family of Jim,
I am Lisa Reedinger, I was “Slim-Jim’s” pen pal, we met when he lived @ Bentley in Harrisburg.
He called me abt a year after moving to Myerstown & we kept in touch ever since! He was very special to me, we had cats in common..lol & would talk on the phone from time to time.
I met Martha & her son 1x at Bentley..& Jim spoke very highly of her, as well as his sons & a Grandson..think #2 was on the way last he wrote.
I’m so sorry for your loss…I know I miss my letters from him..I have every letter & card he sent me.
Sincerely
Lisa Reedinger
