Jim was a wonderful person and friend. We have many, many memories that we will hold close to our hearts. He was like a second father to our daughter and she will very much miss "Uncle Jim". Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.

Jim was a constant souce of fun and good humor. I shot in the archery leagues in Vandercook with him. I will remember all of the good times we had every time I pick up my bow.
