Not sure what to say?

I probably saw my uncle Jim a little different than most. He was always honest, He always had time for me, even when he was busy. He was a true gentleman. People say "I love you" alot. But when uncle jim said it, I knew that he really meant it. He loved his family, and although we never talked about his job, it is obvious that he was loved by alot of people. I asked him the last time I talked to him, "What am I going to do when something happens to the people closest to me?" he said, "Well...

Jim was a great man and deserves all the riches the Lord has in store for him. He will be missed and remembered as a distinquished, honorable pillar of our community. I'll never forget his untarnished character.

Though I did not know my Dads cousin very well but I'll enjoy the memories that he shared with me. my Prayers and thoughts
Always !

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your husband and father. He was a good and decent man and a true friend.

Mr Larsen, Jim, you have been, and will remain, a major influence in my life. Second only to my father, I have never respected anyone as I have you. You are the truest essence of honesty, integrity, loyalty, fairness, and simplicity. In your words, and your actions, you taught me the importance of those things. You have been to me a role model, a mentor, the perfect example of what a man should be. Although you are no longer of this world, you will remain alive in the minds, hearts and...

Carol and Family,
You have my deepest sympathies. Chief Larson was a good man and a Firefighters Chief. He looked out for "his boys". He will be sorely missed.

Dear Carol and family,

We the crew at St.3 C Shift wish to express our deepest sympathy. Our respect for him as a man and a true Fire Chief that cared about his firemen will carry on forever in our hearts.

His ability to relate his knowledge about the fire service and life, whether one on one, or as a group was always special, because you knew he was a honest and trusting person that always told it straight, ( No punches pulled ) and we as Firemen loved and cherished it..He is a...

Dear Carol and all of your family,
It has been awhile since I saw you and Jim, but when I did see you, I enjoyed the visit so much.
I grew up with all three boys. They was just like the brother's that I never had. I have a lot of great memories. I know this is such a hard time for all of you, but Jim is in a good place and time will help ease the pain. I will certainly keep all of you in my prayers.
