Uncle Jim was very to dear to all of us . I remember him always laughing, his joy was contagious. When he and my dad(Mel Clark) would get together, there was always a laugh! He was one of our favorites as he was so kind to all of the children:) He was faithful and loved God truly . My prayer is for you to know the comfort of the Holy Spirit . With heartfelt love :) Lou and Therese Engle and family
