Not sure what to say?

the lekas´ were our next door neighbors in lodi, ca. although jim was quite a bit older than we, we´d always call him jimmy. we kept in contact up to his death. i haven´t seen his face for some time but i miss hearing his voice. my condolences to all those who miss him.

I can't remember whenwhere I first met Jim, but it was definitely railroad related. I instantly recognized both has face and name.

I am so sorry about Jim's passing and my condolences to his family. We talked on the phone fairly often and I will miss his calls. Kevin and Kelly made a nice home for Jim and I know he will be missed. Miss you B-I-L.

My condolences to the Lekas family. My husband, Tom, also enjoyed the model railroad passion. What a wonderful way to honor Jim´s special love. God bless the family at this difficult time. Jan Alexander, Lodi, CA
