Not sure what to say?

Saddened by news of Jim's passing but grateful for the opportunity to have known him. We went through our school years in Darrouzett, graduating in 1967 and then college together at OPSU. I've many fond memories of those days and of times visiting in later years. I shall miss him. Our deepest sympathy to the Collinsworth family.

Jim was a great man. He was very caring if others and was as nice as they come!! He will be missed and I’m honored to call him my friend!! Go hunt with my dad and we will meet again one day!!
Jeremy Blan

I remember Jim fondly from my teaching days at Waka School where he was active as a board member and father. He was a fine man and I send my heartfelt sympathy to all the family. Twila, a big hug wish I were closer to share condolences in person!
