Jim and I first met when he came to work at GMC Truck & Coach. Over the years we became family friends, and ultimately neighbors. We worked together in several departments and projects. We played bridge many times, laughed together at Management Club gatherings. Jim was a family man, proud of his children but also giving to his community. I recall his responses to our "First of May" messages in good humor. My condolences to Judy and the family. Rest well, Jim.

Jim and Judy have been our neighbors for 13 years. We have enjoyed each other so much playing cards going out to eat and we loved golfing with Jim. He always made it interesting because he spent more time looking for golf balls than he did Golfing. I have many fond memories of our crazy days on the golf course. he was to me the sweetest man always giving me compliments lol Jim Terry and I are going to miss you very much. Rest in peace.

My Dad. He left us with a love of reading, he instilled in us a respect for hard work and integrity, his generosity was felt by many, and most importantly to me, he taught us how to have a sense of humor in this life. No one who knew him will forget his ability to come up with spontaneous witty remarks. I love you Dad and will miss you always. My happy thought is the reunion I picture between you and Jeannie in heaven.

Jim was my Golf Buddy, But his special power was. After golf, finding a bar that served pickles pig feet. And he always had a joke for the women. I’ll miss that crazy old man. RIP Jim
