James P. Nienhuis

Dear Karen and family,
Just received my copy of Spark and was saddened to read that Jim had passed away. You have my deepest sympathy for your loss. Seeing Jim's name brought back so many memories of good times together at Calvin! Sharing an apartment together with Ren and Case as well as well as getting to know you, Elaine, and Carol. May our God continue to console you and your family. Jim was a man who left his mark wherever he went. He will be missed by many.

Dear Karen,
We just saw this is the Spark. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We shared a lot of fun times with the two of you.

Dear Karen, I was saddened today to find out that Jim had gone home to be with our Lord Jesus Christ. Jim and I were boyhood friends in Modesto. We both attended Modesto CRC. We road the bus to school together each day and lived close to each other. We had much fun together as kids. May God bless and comfort you knowing that we will see him again in Heaven.

Dear Karen and Family,

Heartfelt condolences to you and your family. Jim was a classmate at Ripon Christian, and a good guy.

Dear Karen and family, Thinking of Jim brings a smile to my face and an ache in my heart. I loved his twinkling eyes, his smirky smile and his laughter; all generously shared whenever we were together. Circling all of you with prayers for comfort, strength and grace. May you rest in the arms of our Lord and find peace as you face the days ahead. In loving friendship, Sue
