Not sure what to say?

What can you say when a giant redwood falls? We were all privileged to know him, love him, and be inspired by him. With great respect, sadness, and many fond memories of a truly amazing human being who gave his best, always. Lin & Bill Andrews

I'm honored to have known such a great and wonderful man. Hugs and love to you, Janet. My deepest sympathy.

I just found out about Mr. Ayers passing. He was a loyal person, humble, passionate to help others and his charities/foundation. I had the honor to work for him and he was always so kind and respectful. I'm so sorry to learn of his passing. He was truly a good person and I know he will be greatly missed. He is now at peace and resting but will be honored as he should be and will missed dearly.

Jim was a gentleman and friend to all who knew him. He left a mighty legacy.

Oh what a fine gentleman!!!!! I am proud of what he and Janet have done for others. Thank you soooooo very much!!

My condolences to the family and Mrs. Janet. I had the pleasure of taken care of Mr. Ayers for a few months and what short time I spent with him and his wife I could tell they were great people.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Jim was a wonderful mentor to so many of us at FirstBank. Melody J Sullivan
