Eulogy 11/6/2018:

My sincerest condolences to the Collins Family in the loss of your loved one, James Luke, and pray you find comfort in Psalms 91:2.

Loved his stories !! Always there to help, another great loss to Last House On The Block. God Blessed Us Jim With You . Bonnie Kennedy -Villas NJ

A reminder of smiling Jesus, and now Jim will be smiling down on me with him.

Forever in our thoughts.
R.I.P. Jimmy Collins
