To Jim's Family,
I am so sorry to hear that Jim has passed away. He and my Dad, Harry Fishburne, were friends up at the Woodbriar and, coincidentally, they both left us this year at the age of 94! Jim would always come and listen to me play the organ. He was always so pleasant and was a true gentleman. He will certainly be missed by all who knew him.
Sincerely,
Jan Morrison
