Jim was my sister Lori Eifrid´s companion. They made a good couple and really knew how to have a good time together. This past spring they joined us in northern Michigan for a fun get away. They shared their plans on their future together but God called him home before they could experience it all. Rest in Peace

Blair was the greatest story teller who could make anyone laugh at any moment in time. I have some of my greatest memories whether we were midnight bowling, attending a party, a nascar race, or just sitting around the grill drinking beers laughing our butts off usually listening to Blair and his stories that would normally be just a story but he could turn it into the best comedy show ever! I´m very sorry for your loss and Jim Blair will be very much missed!

To all Jim´s family. I am so sorry to hear of Jim´s passing. I am glad I took the time to see him at the hospital. I am going to miss you Cuz. I remember many time at the lake both Shriner and Loon lake with all three of you and all 8 of us at Grandpas and at your parents on Loon Lake. Rip tell Grandpa and your mom and dad and Mom and Dad hi and give all hugs. May God have mercy on you. I love you. Teri Blair Silvestri.

Jim you will be greatly missed , always loved our memories from high school and beyond . You had such a big heart and would go the extra mile for any of us . Rest in Heaven my Friend for you will never be forgotten .
