So sorry to hear of Jules passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Betty, and your daughters. He was such a nice man and will be remembered fondly. When I came to College Hill Presbyterian Church – he was one of the first people I met and he always made me and Seamas feel welcomed there. He will be missed
