My Uncle Jim was an excellent man and an honest brother. My Dad asked Jim to invest a sum of money for him, because Uncle Jim had a talent for investment. Jim invested the money, and he told my Father that whatever happened to the investment, Jim would pay Dad back what he invested. Some time later, the stock market took a tremendous dive. Uncle Jim told Dad that as soon as he had recovered his own losses, he would pay Dad back his investment. It took a little while, but my Uncle Jim reimbursed his brother, my Dad, every penny. I will miss you, Uncle Jim, and I will always remember your grace and Christian honesty.
