Tina and Clint and the Ferguson Family,
We share with you in your loss. No one can understand the depth of grief or the height of love, except that one who feels in their own heart. Our prayer is that the All Father will wrap each of you in His gracious, loving arms and grant you serenity and peace. With love,

To the Ferguson family – Jimmy was my first cousin and it has been years since I have seen him. Our condolences at this time of need. May God bless each of you at this time and in the future. Be assured that he is at peace.
Dear Ferguson Family,
We were deeply saddened to read of Jim’s passing. Our daughters have fond memories of visiting their Dad and “Mr. Jim” at fire station number 7 when they were growing up. The Friday Night Lights were made better by having Jim in the stands! Many of the fire station stories involve Jim in one way or another. Our prayer for you is that your hearts will hold fast to his memory, and that Our Lord will comfort you and help you deal with your grief. Our deepest sympathy,
Mikie and Bill Taylor
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family! Phi 4:13
