Dear Friends,

This letter is being sent to everyone on Jim Paw-Paw Wilson's address
book.

Our good friend, Patriot, Blacksmith, Chairman of Cybersmiths
International
and author of The Revolutionary Blacksmith, passed away Friday May 13
at

Jim is survived by his wife Sheri, 4 children and 27 foster children.
He
died of respiratory failure after a bout of pneumonia possibly
trigerred by
zinc fume fever.

A memorial service will be held Monday May 16, 7:00 PM at Holy Family >Catholic Church, Clemmons, NC. Coffee and desert will be served
afterward.
In liew of flowers please make a donation to Catholic Social Services
or a
charity of your choice.

As many of you know Jim was building a NEW blacksmith shop. It is
beautiful, open and airy. He had just gotten the chimney atached to
his new
forge but it has never had a fire in it. This afternoon his family and
I
will be putting the blower on the forge and building the first fire and >probably the last fire in his forge at 5:00 PM Sunday May 15. The fire
will
be used by his children and grandchildren to experiance some of Jim's
love
for the forge. Afterward we will ring his anvil and deface his
touchmark.

Jim was my best friend and traveling companion. We shall all miss him.

Jock Dempsey, for Sheri and the family
