Not sure what to say?

I have warm memories of growing up across the street from the McCorcle family. Patricia and I were the same age so it was fun to live in the same neighborhood. I remember visiting Mr. McCorcle at the pharmacy to get my sunflower seed fix and he was always welcoming and gentle.

Dear Norma Jean and family,
My condolences to you and your family. He was a wonderful man. Blessings and prayers to you.

Dear Norma Jean and family, I was saddened to hear of Jim's passing. I have memories way back in my childhood when our families would get together. Jim always had a big smile and a kind word. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Much love.

Jim was a favorite customer at my ceramics shop. I adored our improptu chats and looking at his tiles after they cooled. I often have spoken fondly of him when thinking back. My condolences to his family. Thank you for sharing such a man with the community.

You are in our prayers. Rick & Kathi Davis

Dear Norma Jean, Pat, Tim and Kerrie,
We happily remember our days together at Faith Lutheran. Jim was a wonderful man and I'm sure you will miss him so much in the upcoming days. But we know that he is with Our Lord sitting in the presence of Jesus - happy and alive for eternity! Blessings and love, Roger & Nancy Lange

Tim and family,

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. May the fond memories of your time together soften the loss for all of you.

Jim helped me through my early years as a young mother, I did not have that much money and he granted me credit when I needed it and sometimes threw in a treat for my children. He taught me to be kind to others and the love of God was displayed in his life. My condolences to the family, our loss, God's gain. /Barb (Whitcraft) Franks
