My last conversation with Jimmy on October 5, he sounded like Jimmy and for a slight moment I thought maybe, just maybe he'd pull through. But he also sounded like he was ok with his condition, a resignation. Jimmy always ended his messages to me with "I love you MUCHO!" Well Jimmy, we all love you MUCHO too! Say hi to Frank for me.
