I just wanted to take some time to thank everyone who came out to the service and expressed their sympathy online here and at the Bean website. Also the phone calls and text messages were all deeply appreciated. A special thank you goes to all of Jim's co-workers who took the time out of their workday to come say goodbye to my big brother.

Jim was a good friend, always sort of quiet, but someone you could trust and depend on. A quiet spirit sometimes speaks the loudest to our souls. We believe Jim was one of those. We hope he will continue to watch over all of us with his grace. Our deepest sympathies to his family.
