Alice and family, you are in our prayers as you mourn the death of Jim. We are honored to have been your neighbors for years on Stillhouse Crk. Rd. Starting our little families together, the Kentucky Derby parties you hosted, the Duke v. Carolina rivalry, and the character that oozed from Jim and Alice, all that and so much more has left a permanently etched and wonderful place in our hearts. May God Bless You All. Go, Duke!
