We're so sorry to hear about Jim. It was wonderful having Jim & Betty as our neighbors growing up. As kids we always went to Betty for cookies & my first car was bought from Jim. We'll miss him deeply as we do Betty. Sorry we missed saying good-bye to Jim but I didn't know until Friday evening. Our thoughts & prayers are with Bartley & Barbara & the entire family. God Bless.
