James Eachus

Hi, first my condolences to Maureen and the whole family. I just happened across this sad news. I rented the house on the ranch from about 1985 to 1990. Jim and Maureen and Ike and Tina were almost family. I built the large deck on the back of the house. I hope its still standing! What a great time in my life those years were. Riding around the ranch with Jim in the old light blue four wheel drive at break neck speeds drinking a "Generic Beer"! The best of times. I hope this finds Maureen and...

Dear Maureen and Family,
My husband and I regarded Jim as a friend who gave us two loves - our two Buchanan Border collies - Gracie (5 years ago) and Sam (formerly Dakota and Simon - September 27). We visited with Jim again this summer, shortly after our wonderful border boy, Max, died. We knew that Jim could help us find another dog to soothe our hearts. Jim called us right after Kia and Flyer's pups were born in August. We visited with Jim and our new puppy several times, from the...

Dear Maureen and Family,
As I write, Wyatt, aka Flyer's Son, our 8 1/2 week old amazing bundle of joy, naps beside me. I picked him up on September 27th and spent over an hour enjoying Jim's company as he prepared Wyatt for our trip back to Keller. From the first time my son Sam and I came to the kennel to choose a puppy, the subsequent phone calls to check on him and with the e-mail he sent my son Greg, the passion Jim had for his dogs was apparant. His knowledge and pure love...

Barry and I were sorry to hear the news. We purchased our border collie "Nikko" from him last year. Jim made such a impression on us with his knowledge, his personality and his outstanding service. Our prayers go out to all of Jims Family and friends!

Hello Maureen,

Our sincerest condolences regarding the death of Jim. I am confident that you will pick up the pieces and move on in a productive and satifying manner,
I remember when Jim offered me pick of the liter with one of Sheba's first liters. He called me two days after they were born and told me I needed to pick my dog right now becuse the rest of the buyers wanted to make their selection. I knew nothing about picking dogs so when I saw the liter and the only one...

Maureen, Just wanted you to know the girls and I were thinking about you. Jim was indeed a character and one that will not be forgotten. I have missed having him in Elgin to banter with. We are just very saddened for your loss. Cynthia Cavanaugh, Kitten and Josie.
