To Kim and the entire Nelson Family,
I did not know Jim, but graduated from STHS with Elizabeth and I wanted to let you know how very sorry I am for your loss. I recently lost my husband at the age of 44, another very young life taken too soon. I hope you are all comforted by the memories you hold dear in your hearts and continue to love and support each other thru these very difficult times and in the years to come.
My deapest sympathy,

Jim Nelson's Family,
I met Jim in fourth grade and spent some great times with him throughout High School. I will remember him always as a great person who looked for the best in people. We laughed a lot.

Kim, Jim and Sarah,
I’m at a loss for words so I wrote you this little poem:
The loss of a gold friend is still sinking in. The music, the laughter and goofing around. Time to grow up, not forgetting the past. Why did it all have to happen so fast? The kids have Dad in them, his blood will still flow. Carrying his goodness, in time it will show. Values he has left them, from this they will grow.
Jim will be missed, by more than you know!

Kim and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. We are deeply sorry for your loss.

Kim and Family,
Our prayers are with you and your family. May God bless and watch over all of you.
Jim will be truly missed.

Kim, Jimmy & Sara...I am so very saddened to hear of the loss of such a wonderful man, husband & father. Our thoughts are with you all.

Dear Kim, Jimmie, and Sarah,
Words simply cannot express how truly sorry we are for the loss of your husband and father. We were blessed to have been able to spend some time with Jim in the hospital and will forever cherish our final goodbyes with him. His legacy will be one of honor and courage and his memory will live through all of us whose lives he touched. Thank you for sharing his life with us and may God Bless you.

I am very sorry to hear of Jim's passing. My deepest sympathies to his wife Kim, his kids, and his fellow STPD officers. Jim was truly a "cop's cop" and will be missed by all. He was a great mentor and friend for our short time together. Goodbye brother and God bless.
