Not sure what to say?

Dear Marcia, Hannah, Chandler and Margaret,
I am so very sorry to hear about Jim’s untimely passing. I had the pleasure of meeting you when I was working in Hannah’s kindergarten at Greeley School and you were a dedicated room mom. You were expecting Margaret and always looked as lovely as you were kind.
I wish I had some magical words of wisdom to comfort you all during this difficult time. In my experience, sharing stories of love ones lost has helped, but our grief journies are...

Hi Marcia. I heard about Jim’s passing. I’m so sorry; I hope you and your family are ok. I saw that you live in the Kansas City area. I’m from Kansas City and will be back there this summer. I’d love to come visit you. Feel free to text or call 847-842-8080. Carol Cutler

So sorry I wasn’t aware of his passing until it was too late to attend the funeral yesterday! I will be making a donation to the local American Legion Post per the request listed in the paper!

So sorry for your loss! Always enjoyed visiting with Jim when he was in town! He will be missed at the American Legion Post here in Plattsburg!

Through the years, Jim was always a pleasure to work with. His abundance of professionalism and positive energy enhanced everyone he encountered. He was a remarkable boss and mentor. I am so thankful to have worked with him. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts are with Marcia and his family.

God be with him in heaven and Godspeed to his family and friends, he will always be in our hearts here on Channel Lake in Antioch, Illinois.

Jim was a special person. We had both a business relationship and personal. Jim was always open to working together. In later years we became more friends when we connected with a very special group, "Monday Night Football" crowd. Jim was a newcomer, yet this is a group that I have known for my entire life.

They know me as "Ricky" and Jim picked that up and brought us closer. I am fortunate to have known Jim and may he rest in peace. Rick Lynn.
