Not sure what to say?

I worked with Jim from 1978 to 2005. He was always a bright spot in our work day

You’ll forever be in our thoughts dad. You were a great father and friend! ‘Love ya!

Jim was a great person too know. Always willing to help and with a very positive style
Excellent lunch partner

Jim added life and humor every day he worked at Basco and made it better for everyone. A great road trip companion, work mate, friend, and human being. I'm grateful to have known you Jim.

Jim was a great mentor and always joyful to work with at API. He was a great golfer too and will be missed! Rest in peace JJS.
