Not sure what to say?

I was just being nostalgic today and remembering those I worked with and Jim came to mind. I first knew Jim when we worked at the Salt Lake Airport Post Office in the late 60's. He was a good worker. We bowled together on the Post Office Bowling League at the Bonwood Bowl. I always enjoyed being in his company.

Uncle Jim leaves impressions for our entire family. He marked history, as he led many soldiers safely through hardships. I loved to witness his visits that accompanied the smiles of sisters, nieces and nephews. He will be missed.

Brother Goins is going to be so missed. It made my Sabbath brighter whenever I saw him and talked with him. He was just so kind and had such a wonderful mind. His strength gave a lift to everyone who spoke with him.I look forward to seeing him again in Heaven and will always remember what a privilege it was to know him.

I worked with Jim for many years at his complex. He was always the first to offer assistance. I have never met a friendlier person. I will miss James.John Holland (property management systems).

Little Jim, PJ, JP, Yvette and Yvonne: I was so fond of uncle Jim - he was fun and a great story teller. We had such a good time last summer in Colorado. I'm glad I took the time off to spend with him, Mom and aunt Donna. My love is with you all.

I remember Great Uncle Jim at the family reunion in Kansas. I was 4 years old. He was a lot of fun and really tall. I hope you will remember all of the fun times.

My dear cousins and family. We share your grief, and please know that we also share wonderful memories of Uncle Jim. He used to drive me from Denver to Salt Lake to Pocatello with him to go visiting in the summers. I am sorry he is gone, but he lives on in my heart, especially the bowling stories.

Goins Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Duane and Kristine Bourdeaux and the entire Bourdeaux Family.

"PJ" & "JP",
My wife and I send our sincere expression of sympathy to all of you for your loss. Mr. Goins was a real inspiration to me and I will always cherrish the memories of him throughout my youth. Take Care and may God bless you all during this time of bereavement.
