Thank you and keep up the help!

Thank you to everyone who has joined to help us get Jim's case some much needed publicity! We have been overwhelmed by the number of people willing to help and it means so much to us. (See post below for info on our effort to get on Nancy Grace... if you haven't done that yet, please consider doing that as well!)

Thanks to my cousin, I have a few more email address to add to the list if you want to keep helping. They are listed below and if you could just send a quick email telling them that you would like to see Jim's case televised that would be so hopeful.

friends@foxnews.com
oreilly@foxnews.com
ontherecord@foxnews.com

I have also contacted Greta Van Susteren's producer and would love to get them interested in Jim's case as well.

Someone out there knows what happened to Jim... more then likely more then one person knows and all it takes is for them to have the courage to speak up. Even the smallest of detail could mean the difference in bringing Justice for Jim.

Help us help Jim!!

Help us get Jim's case some much needed publicity, we are tired of waiting around and getting no where!! We would love to have Jim's case shown on CNN's Nancy Grace show and we need your help to contact the show and let them know you too want to see Jim's case televised. All we are asking is to take 5 minutes and go to http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?81 to tell them you want Jim's case on the show.

You can say anything you want about Jim, just let them know that he was a wonderful guy who didn't deserve this and his murderer needs to be found. You can give them this website(www.justiceforjim.com) as well as the Miami Crime Stoppers website where Jim's case was recently posted - that link is http://www.crimestoppersmiami.com//unsolved.aspx - he is the second case on the site.

Please feel free to pass this on to anyone who we could have missed.

Thank you so much, we really appreciate all of the support that we have received through all of this!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving has come and gone with no usual phone call from Jim. While he was generally not home for Thanksgiving, we would have talked to him and known his plans for the day. As is always the case, Jim was not far from our minds while we had the usual Thanksgiving day feast that this year included one of Jim's favorites, rice krispie treats. I made sure to have an extra as he would have done. I don't think that I can pass a rice krispie treat without thinking of Jim. In fact I remember that it seems just like yesterday that my daughter and I were making a batch to send to him in Florida. I included lots of pictures of her making them for him, pictures that we found in his stuff at his apartment. I remember him calling after getting them in the mail and telling me that they didn't even make it 24 hours before he had eaten them all!

This year we spent the day being thankful for what we have now, while remembering what we did have while Jim was with us. We are very thankful for the many friends and family that have supported us through the past 7.5 months, I know that I couldn't have done it without so much support. As Christmas and Jim's birthday approach we are facing more tough moments, however I am sure that Jim will be there with us guiding us through and making sure that we find ways to make new memories while honoring the old.

In a couple of weeks my mom and I will be going to a candle lighting ceremony to honor children of all ages who have gone to soon. Jim's name will be read and a ornament will be place on a tree for him. No doubt this will be a tough night, however I am looking forward to having one more way to honor Jim's memory.

We love and miss you Jim!
