Read MoreTo the Hanford Family: I just heard of Jim's passing and am sorry I didn't know sooner. I accompanied him on the guitar at the talent show and enjoyed interesting conversations with him as he walked his friendly dog. He was an interesting friendly man....one of a kind, and though you miss his physical presence I am sure he is well taken care of in his transformed life and will watch over you until you see him again. Sincerely, Mark Abler

Nylah & family, it is with sadness that I write having heard of Jim's death. Memories go way back over 70 years to grade school days. Jim was a fun, friendly, ever cheerful and kind classmate. I'm glad we 3 got to visit two years ago at our 60th reunion. May find memories bring you comfort . God bless you & give you peace.
