Journal entry by Laura Petrie Anderson —
A brief update for all as we begin the New Year. Our immediate family is now in a medically recommended isolation period due to the prolonged time we were allowed to spend with Jim yesterday (special thanks to Nurse Hailey on 4SW for running interference for us yesterday while Froedtert's Covid visitation rules were in flux).
As we reflect on this past week, and amid the continued Omicron surge, we have decided that we will defer any memorial gatherings for Jim until it is safer for folks to be together. Perhaps until warmer weather comes and we can celebrate Jim in the great outdoors. He was not a big fan of winter anyway. . .
Thank you all again for your continued support. Your notes, texts, emails, thoughts and prayers from both near and far mean more to us than you will ever know.
The Petrie Family
