To the Castleberry Family,
I had the pleasure of working as Jim's inside rep at EMC. He was not just a mentor but a friend. Jim always called when he was in town and even called just to check on my mother's health. He was always filled with joy when talking about his family. Jim will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Thoughts and prayers to you during this difficult time.

To Wendy and the kids,

I will always associate Jim with the best in optimism, professionalism and devotion to family. His laugh was infectious and his sales savvy deep.

I am truly sorry for your loss.

Wendy,

Jim was a good man and one of my very best friends when we worked together at EMC. I always enjoyed working closely with Jim, as he was so much fun to be around. He always talked about his children and obviously loved them very much. I will miss Jim terribly.

Dear Mrs. Nolan, Teresa, Joe and family,

Words are so inadequate to express our sincerest condolences at Jimmy's sudden passing.

I will always have fond memories of him growing up in Clinton and always being around our house with Jimmy Brady. He was a GREAT kid growing up and we always knew he would do very well.

May God Bless you all at this most difficult time, cherish your memories and take comfort in knowing that he lived life to the fullest.

Dear Wendy:
Jim was one of my favorite people. He would always call when he was in town and we would have dinner. I loved Jim like a brother - since he always watched out for me, and always included me in his latest business endeavors.
I will miss Jim everyday. He was a fixture on the software business world "down here" in DC. There are hundreds of people here that know Jim and were touched by him.
I am so sorry for your family's loss. Jim always kept me up-to-date on you and the kids, the lake and your latest escapades. He was so grateful to have you and the kids. Jim gushed with pride about you and the kids.
Mike and Claudia
