Not sure what to say?

Jim, I was honored to have known you. When you spoke it was from the heart. Quiet, unassuming, with a wicked wit and sense of humour. You inspired strength with humility and grace. I enjoyed playing with you in Polar Vortex and introducing you to Bob band and playing with you there. My life is better because of your presence- best wishes on your next journey. People with music in their hearts don´t go away they just say,,, until again.

We offer our deepest condolences to the family on their great loss. We met Jim during our several years at Bailey Controls and as family friends which extended to family vacation in Canada and the fun times there. After leaving Bailey we met Jim while he was part of the Great Geauga Fair band and again at the Garfield historic home where he was a member of the Lake Effect band. Jim was always kind and helpful and successful on the many projects he was assigned. We were both kept busy...

Rest in peace Jim and God bless your family. I am so glad to have had the opportunity to play saxophone and clarinet with you.

We met Jim in the Lake Effect Concert Band. He was always so friendly and kind. Love and peace to family and friends.

We send our condolences to the Adams family we grew up with after returning from Australia to Williamsburg Drive. Memories are many and vivid. Car pools, ball games, broken windows, a place to stay when locked out of our house. Remember those formative years that we were all a part of and you will remember Jim at his prime.
