Not sure what to say?

Uncle Jimmy's mind was always working with new ideas and ways to get things done. Always a thinker.

I had many wonderful times with my great friend Jim. From our fun adventures running As the Worm Turns bait farm to kicking up our heels on many dance floors. May you dance on my friend. Jim will always have a very special place in my heart. My condolences to his exceptional family. I will keep you all in my prayers.

Jimmy, what an interesting character. He and I became very close during his resent stay in the hospital for prostate sugary. We had many great conversations and memorable laughs.

Enjoy the next chapter to your journey, Uncle Jimmy.

Jimmy and I had some good times through our lives. He was my closest brother. I will miss him.

I hope Jimmy is enjoying the next journey.

JBC lived life fully and robustly - a lesson many of us could learn. He was charming, intelligent, well-traveled, and had a taste for the best life has to offer. I'm very sorry for your loss.

Our sympathy is with the entire family.

Happy trails old sailor.

Uncle James (known by me as Nunk as I couldn't pronounce his whole title when very young :-),
was a wonderful role model and influenced me greatly while growing up. He transmitted, to me and my brother David, a taste for the 'better things in life': an appreciation for fine wine, Gourmet food and a delight in civilised cultured conversation that stays with me still.
I wish him a good journey on this his beginning of a big adventure xx all my love xx Jamie xx
