Jim is survived by his daughter, Lynda Lee Caldwell; son, James Steven (Brenda) Caldwell; grandson, Zayn Owen Skiles; granddaughters, Jamie Ann Caldwell and Bobbie Lee Owens, and sister, Barbara Lee Davis.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Jim will be greatly missed. Having been Friends and neighbors on Halifax Ct, for over 30+ years, going to Mass on Saturday Evenings with Jim and Naomi (my best friend) doing so many activities together, when Naomi was called home we still saw Jim. I know he and Naomi are together in Heaven. We Loved Jim and Naomi, they are missed everyday

Blessings
