With deepest sympathy and prayers in this time of great loss!
Although recently retired from the City of Fountain Valley, I had the pleasure of knowing and working with Jim for many years. He was always in a happy mood with alot of stories or jokes to tell. He truly loved his drag racing. He was missed when he retired, he will be greatly missed forever.
Be strong and cherish the many memories. God Bless!
