My Deepest Sympathies to The Eimer Family. I was very blessed to help Care for Jim in his Last few years of life. he was the sweetest,thoughtful,compassionate,honest,strongest man I have ever met. he never complained not once. he fought a long and hard fight. his love for Toni was incredible and amazing. He never spoke a harsh never complained nor was he bitter about the horrible disease he suffered with Parkinson's. He spoke to many times of his love for his children and his brothers and all of the long time friends he had.I did my Job to care for Jim to make a difference in his life through his illness to find that he touched my life more than I could ever his. He taught me souch about life and compassion and how to be a real fighter. Jim earned his ticket to the golden gate. he was a very amazing man one of a kind. may he rest in peace and never be in pain again.i will miss you dearly Buddy. I know you are up in the heavens playing golf with frank.
Thank You Eimer family for giving me the pleasure of being a part of such a WONDERFUL mans life. It was a blessing
