Jim was my store manager at 84 Lumber back in the early 70´s in North Central Ohio. Jim taught me the foundations of my construction career that had served me well for the past 50 years. Jim was a stern but fair educator. Rest In Peace Old Friend.......

Jim...

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. Slán go fóill! (Bye for now Jim...)...

With Much Love, Arlene, Bill and Elaine
