Not sure what to say?

Jim was the best Vet that ever lived. I have searched for years to find a guy that could come close to how super special he made our pets and of course us feel. Peter was my student in grade school and we just had a terrific connection. I was devastated to lose him. I follow Becky and her family with great interest. She followed her dad in the business and when she is ready to go back to work, I'l be there!
Please know that I am so so sorry for this loss. May you RIP Jim, I hope...

Jim was a kind, funny, loving, man. Enjoy our time out on the deck in Munds Park, Jim and Sandy telling funny and serious stories. He always had a smile or laughing. He had enjoyed his life and loved his Family. You are truly missed already. RIP!

Jim was a great man, always had a joke and a smile. We will miss him

So many fond memories of our dear Uncle Jim. No one can tell a joke like he could! He will be truly missed, Cheers Uncle ❤

Oh, how our hearts ache, Sandy! Can 2020 get any worse? We are so sorry to hear of Jim's passing and your great, great loss! Jim will always remain a hero in our hearts. It was such a privilege to help him construct his autobiography and certainly increased our admiration of the leadership he provided in his military commands and social networks. Surely he serves as a model of a great American who served his country with pride and honor.

May God bless you and yours always...
