So sorry to hear about Jim. I knew him many years ago thru my sister Sheree and brother-in-law Carlton Towles. May he rest in peace.

We're so very saddened to hear about Jim. Becky and I have many great memories of fun times with Jim and Sandy. He was the best golfing buddy I had. We always had fun even when the play was bad. I could always count on Jim if I needed anything.
Thinking of all the family.

Sending my deepest sympathy to Jim's family. I'm saddened that I only met Jim later in life and, never stayed in contact with him and his family. They few times I saw him, he was a very kind person and I enjoyed our family visits.
