We will miss Jim very much although we only knew him for a short time. Six years was not nearly long enough.
We did not want him to go.
He will be dearly missed and always in our hearts.

Our deepest sympathy to Mary and the rest of the Green family in this time of sorrow. Jim was a special person and I think of him and his fantastic golf game and demeanor on the course. He taught me much about my own game. He was loved by all who met him. RIP friend.

Grandpa.....Words cannot express how much we will all miss you. You were the best grandpa and the closest person I had as a father figure. I am the person I am today because of your wisdom and guidance through the years. I will miss calling you and telling you of the accomplishments of my girls and myself. There are so many other things I will miss especially cooking a new recipe and having you try it first. We Love you with all our hearts....Brianna, Shannon, Sarah, and Nikki.
