To the family, This is Nathan Geschke a childhood friend of Jimmys that lived on Brendan lane, I am so very sorry for your loss there are no words that will offer any help, My family has also dealt with loss of this same nature, I lost my older brother in 2006 and my younger brother October of 2013 , Both in the same tragic way as my friend Jimmy even though it has been years since we have spoken because i live in Baton Rouge. Even though miles and time has passed i thought of him often. Your family is in my prayers .

Jim, I just found out about the loss of your son or I would have been at the wake tonight. I am so sorry for you and your family. There are no words to comfort you. All I can do is pray that you have peace and comfort at this time. Your son will, along with God prepare a place for you all, so when it is your time to go to Heaven, you will have a seat next to your son and God... He is smiling down on you, thinking what a great mom and dad he has....

Words seem inadequate to express the feelings I have about Jimmy passing. When I think of the very best and funniest moments I have experienced in my life, almost all of them involved Jimmy. I know every friend he had, especially at OU, can recall similar experiences. That's just the type of personality he had. I loved and cared for him like a brother and always will. My deepest sympathy goes to the entire family of Dolezal during this difficult time. Just please remember the joy he brought to everyone that had the opportunity to know him.
