James Eckmann

Jim always made you smile and laugh with him . Seems I recall he put his boat in the river just off their property AND he and my husband , Chuck , pulled a surfboard . One of the guys was on that surfboard. I wasn't there but just imagine 2 Brown adults doing that! Donna , I'm so thankful for your friendship and happy memories. God Bless your wonderful family. Janet

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Jim was a good guy i remember buying produce off of him in the eighties and we always crossed paths through the years mostly out in Shafter at the Generals drive inn. Always had a lot of laughs. Our condolences to you Donna and your family. Dick and Julie Young.

Jim had the most happy personality and wonderful laugh. He told us the story of his very young son said he'd fed the dog . Later Jim found the freezer door open and the butcher paper on the sidewalk . I believe Donna had just filled the freezer with fresh beef. With much love Janet Ruth

Eckmann family -- I am so sorry for your loss. We have so many fond memories of holidays and family get-togethers spent with your family. Jim will be missed by all.

Jill, Kevin, Aspen, Aiden and Gavin, My heart is broken for you all, as I know how much you adored your wonderful Dad and Grandpa ... and he adored you. Love and prayers are on-going as you grieve, go through the ceremonial events, as well as the future without your amazing Dad. Jill, love you so much and look forward to seeing you soon.

I am so sorry to hear of Jim´s passing. Although I was only in his company a few times, he was a great guy. My heartfelt condolences to Donna and family. May God Bless his soul and bring comfort to his family.
