My condolences to Jim's family at his passing. A true gentleman he excelled at all that he did but especially with sharing his friendship. Enjoyed working with him, playing hockey and listening to him entertain at the keyboard. He will be missed and long remembered by all who knew/worked with him. Rest in peace Jim.

Our condolences to the Sherven family. Jim was a real gentleman, I worked with him on Shift #3 at VWS for a few years & found him very entertaining. Enjoyed his piano playing also.
