Dear Editor,

To the family of Jim Smith,

Our hearts were saddened when we saw Jim’s obituary and learned of his death on Sept. 1.

We first met Jim through Langley Youth and Family Services, where he provided counselling when we needed support for our family. Jim’s heart for youth and families was so evident, and his approach to whole family care really benefited our family.

We are so thankful for the support he offered us, as we know he did for so many in the Langley community. We are so sorry for your deep loss of such a wonderful man.

Much love,

April, Danny, and Joe Ferguson, Langley Meadows
