We certainly lost a fine man and friend when Jim left us but his home with JESUS is beyond words. And yes he is still missed by many.

Jim was always a delight and loved by everyone, especially the kids because he loved kids and always made sure he had candy for them, thus the name Candy Man. He is truly missed. Until we all meet again in GOD´s glorious Kingdom, we press on.

Rami and Delane, I know you will miss your Dad greatly. He was a good provider to his family. He loved you both tremendously. He will be missed by many, but now he is not struggling to breath, he is bowed before our Fathers throne. In a brand new body. I am blessed to ave watched him grow. I love you both. Mom.
