Sharon & family,
Well, now I know where you get your oustanding personality, Sharon! I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree! He sounds like a lot of fun and a very witty man! I know you will miss spending time with him but your memories (and I'm sure there are so many) will lighten your hearts when you think of him.
God Bless,

I will never forget the attention Uncle Jim showed me every Christmas in Belmont. He had the gift for making everyone he met feel comfortable. He was legendary for his jokes.
He'll be missed.
