Dear Emily, Taylor and Bailey, We were so sorry to learn that Jimmy had passed away. We all agree that although we didn't see him more than a few times, really, we remember him as warm and kind and thoughtful - a genuinely nice man. That's saying a lot about a person.

Emily,
I got the news yesterday and am so sorry. I have such great memories; Ann Marie and I skiing with you and Jim, golf, a great friendship and the one of my favorites, fishing on his old boat in Lake Erie. Jim taught me a great deal and was an awesome friend and boss. We had many good times. I will miss him and keep you in our prayers. God Bless.

Dear Emily, Bailey and Taylor,
I never see the ducks on Lake Zurich without recalling the girls telling me those funny little ones are "coots," which they had learned from Daddy. Jim lives on in small moments he shared with all of us. What a good and decent man, and role model for the girls. It is a gift to have had him as a friend.
Love to you all,
Karen Schaudt

As a high school classmate of Jim, I have thought of him many times over the years. He was a very nice person. I have very funny memories of his visit to Bill and I at Miami University years ago. I am sure he leaves love and wonderful experiences with his friends and family. - Brice Kibler

So sorry to hear of your loss. Havent seen Jim in years but used to really get a kick out of running into him at OSU games. Amazing how 'we' find each other in crowds that big. Also have a lot of fond memories of Jim from back in the 'Nerk' days.
Blessings to all,
