Not sure what to say?

Sue, Jimmy, Sandy and family,
Melody and I extend our deepest sympathy to you. All of you were a big part of my early childhood growing up two blocks away from you. I remember even as a child thinking that Jim was the happiest and person in the world. I never heard him say a bad word about anything. He was genuine and humble (in the most positive meaning of the word possible). I saw him 4 years ago and I could appreciate him even more as an adult. He was truly a good man.

Dilger Family,

My condolences to you on your loss. I worked at WANG Computers with Jim back in the eighties. He was a great guy who always had a smile on his face. I have fond memories of him.

It can be so hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.

Jim made every day worth coming in to work for. He brightened everyone around him and I am better for having known him. May he rest in peace and prayers for his family.

To the Dilger Family

My most heartfelt condolences in the passing of Jim. I worked with him for 15 years and he truly was a gentleman and a joy to work with. I will miss him dearly.
