Not sure what to say?

Our thoughts & prayers go out to Jim's family. We were good friends of his & feel all the more richer to have spent so much time w/Jim, eating sushi mostly - my goodness could he put it away! We were always laughing when we were w/him - he had a heart of gold!! We will miss him so much, but are glad to know he is not suffering now & is definitely in God's good hands. We love you very much Buddy, thanks for such beautiful friendship. We are all the more better people for knowing you.

I was sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was a gentle soul who spent many years here in the state of Indiana working with us at Rolls-Royce. I'll never forget how happy he was right before he moved to Arizona. I was sad to see him go, but I was happy for him. The last time I saw him, I had dinner with him at Mark's place. He seemed to be in a good place at that time, and had even grown a pony tail!

I miss our years at Boeing with Jim and all our friends. I miss going to lunch with him which it seemed like everyday he would end up with something he was eating on his shirt. I miss giving him a hard time for reading the Drudge Report. He sat at his screen so close because he had a bad eye. His desk fan blowing! His sharp loud laugh! He was all good! Rest in peace Jimmy! Your friend Rich. Forever in my heart buddy!

I had the pleasure of meeting and making Jim my friend while I worked at Boeing Mesa. He was such a courteous gentle man. So sorry to hear of his passing.

We are very sad to learn of Jim's passing but rejoicing that he is free of any more suffering. We will definitely miss our friend Jim and will always appreciate that he was the one to purchase my mother's home in Mesa at the mobile home park. My mom also wishes to express her sorrow of his passing. May the peace of God's grace comfort Jim's family during this time and always in remembering him.

Jim - We will always keep you in our thoughts and will miss you.

Jim was a true friend. He encouraged me when I was feeling low. Jim will be missed.

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