To Linda and the Bonk Family:
. I just found out bout Jim's passing. JB was such a great leader and there are very few like him. I too am from the old Camelot Family. My prayers are with all of you at this difficult time

Linda,

J.B. will be missed by our Camelot family. He was a friend to all of us and a great leader. Please accept my sincere sympathy.

Linda, Please accept my deepest sympathy. Jim was a wonderful person and leader. I will always remember my 30 years at Camelot. Jim played a big part in my fond memories. May he rest in peace.

Linda-It was a true pleasure to be a little help to you & J.B. the past twenty two months. You both fought gallantly to get to better times. I always thought if anyone could beat this dreaded disease, it would be our buddy J.B. God works in ways we will never understand. Keep your faith. Love & respect.....steven cress

When JB & Linda were moving from their home after his diagnosis & needed to get rid of some things, we were given their birdbath. Recently, our son told us JB said to him as he was loading up the heavy birdbath into the truck, "If you ever see a bird in this birdbath, it's me." Brian said, "Guess I'd better keep water in it then." Last evening, Brian filled up the birdbath with water, as it was dry, and we are awaiting our visitor.

Linda and family,
Jim was a very kind man whom I had the pleasure to meet. I know he will be missed by many lives he has touched. I'd like to extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family. God bless

Jim was the kindest, most gentle person I have had the pleasure of knowing. He even made the little people feel important. He was never too busy or too important to say Good Morning to all he passed.
He will be missed and our thoughts and prayers are with you Linda in the loss of such a fine and caring man.
Patricia & Paul Leyh

Linda - my deepest sympathies to you! JB impacted many lives including mine. I am grateful to JB for bringing many fine people into the Camelot Family. The great memories that we all share of him and "family" will live on forever. We will all remember the "one brief shining moment known as Camelot."
