You were the best father any girl could ask for. You were kind and gentle and generous and the best grandfather, ever. You will be missed so very much. I love you daddy. You rest with the angels now and I know that Heaven is rolling with laughter from your funny jokes. Miss you.

Dear Jim,
I think a good indication of a life well lived is how people react to your passing. I can't help but smile when I think of you. You were a very special person who brought joy to whoever you met. I will always remember your love for your grandsons and the wacky jokes you used to tell them...and the fun you brought to our holiday gatherings long ago. You will be missed.
RIP.
Michelle and Gary Gustavson
