Not sure what to say?

I knew Jim for about 60 years. Our lives go back to playing in Chewelah creek as kids, fishing, working at the bowling alley and playing sports together. He was a great friend and I still miss playing golf with him. Because he was such a gentleman, he touched the hearts of many of my friends. He made a lasting impression on them. Until we see each other again.

Hi Dean,
My sincere condolences on the loss of your dad. When I saw your last name, then, your father's photo......You look so much like your dad.

I never met Jim, but, given the fact he produced you, he had to be a terrific man!

I just wanted to send you my condolences.

Jim was a good boss and friend. He will be missed. Our thoughts are with the family. Jack and Earlene in Az.

We will truly miss our friend and partner. We pray for the Egger family and our sympathies go out.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Jim and his family. I first met Jim while grooming and training with Bruce Wagar.
So knowing Jims love for the horses this is for you Jim.
Horseman's Prayer

Dearest God in Heaven,
Give me the strength to guide my horse.
Make my hands soft and my head clear.
Let my horse understand me, and I him.
My heart You have blessed with a special love of these animals,
Let me never lose sight of it.
My soul You have...

I am very sad to learn of Jim's passing. As a fellow racehorse fan and owner, I got to know JIm well at Playfair Racetrack and even got to chat with him one time in Arizona.
I have not visited with him in some time, but always remember his "cheerful/upbeat" attitude whenever we would converse. JIm and his business partner, Larry Rayburn, were always very nice to me.
My condolances go out to his family and many other friends.

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

So glad we were able to create special memories these past ten years in Arizona. Our thoughts and prayers go with you.
