We were so sorry to learn about Jim Ed's death.

Our families enjoyed AHS football games and parent activities when Jim Ed and Nathaniel played in the late '90's.

May the memories and spirit of Jim Ed bring your family comfort and peace. In addition to God's guidance and your faith, please know you have the thoughts and prayers of friends with you as your family deals with your loss.
