Not sure what to say?

Jim, I know you are seated at a table with all the influential metal musicians who have passed on, many of which you were responsible for making me aware of back in our school days. I know you are sharing stories, laughs, and talking about their albums with them in true Jim fashion. Gayle and I are going to miss you, Jim. There certainly has been nobody like you, Sir.

Our sincerest condolences to the family. May you memories bring you comfort during this difficult time.

Brother, I wish I had a chance to say goodbye to you but I honored your wishes all the way to the end.
I have so many great memories of you, Mad Brad, Clutch and me at all the shows and our crazy road trips. We had some incredible times that I’ll never, ever forget.
I posted this “Big Jim - Metal Warrior” pic again because I know how much you loved it and how excited you were when I gave you a poster of it. Brad and I always wished we could have made you into a real action...
