Jim, you were one of the nicest neighbors we have ever had. You would take out our garage cans if we forgot. If you got up earlier than us you put up our newspaper right by the garage. You were thoughtful and helpful and we did the same for you. You loved to laugh and talk and knew everyone by name or by sight. A real people person. You will be missed by all who knew you and thought of often.
