Not sure what to say?

I cannot believe Jim has been done five years. Bob and I remember the FOTL dine around where he was our captain and we learned about his health issues. That night it was lightly raining and we spent quite a bit of time with Jim - great memories. We spent a lot of time together starting the Brookfield Education Foundation years ago as well. I am happy we had these valuable exchanges through the years. Hugs to the family on today's anniversary.

Please accept our deepest sympathy in Jim's passing. We had a lot of respect for Jim's dedication to Brookfield's educational system. Personally, I enjoyed working with Jim on a number of past town issues. Rest in peace!

My heart goes out to the Conant family. I have wonderful memories of our children growing up together in Brookfield and of all the work Jim did for our schools. And he was a great Math counts coach. My deepest sympathy.

I worked with Jim over 20 years ago. He left such a good impression as a human being that even though we had not kept in touch since then, his passing leaves me with great sadness. I cant imagine the loss his family must feel at this time. My thoughts and prayer are with you.

It was so great being neighbors for the last 20 years...we will never forget when we asked you what you liked most about living on the lake you said, "Every morning is different." You will be missed. The Taylor family

I am so sorry to hear the sad news. My prayers go to James and his family.

I am so sorry for your loss. Please be assured God cares for you and will comfort you at this time. 1 Pet. 5:7
