Not sure what to say?

Jim was not only My Uncle, he was my big brother. I was raised by his parents, my Grandparents. He and Irma were there for me always and as Brad said He was the Greatest. Rest in Peace Jim with Irma. You 2 are together now forever and with the rest of the family older than you.
With Love, Margaret

May you find assurance in His word,
strength in His presence,
comfort in His mercy and
peace in His love.

Love & blessings,
Leon and Kathy Verdoorn

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

Uncle Jimmy will forever have a warm place in my heart. I will miss his warm smile and quick wit our family gatherings, for which he was forever present. Like his older brother, William Adelbert, my grandfather, this quality was something I loved and will always hold fond memories of in my heart. Love you Uncle Jimmy! Thank you for being you and God"s blessings in your peaceful rest with Him! :)

I have nothing but the fondest of memories when thinking of Uncle Jimmy. He could make you smile from a mile away.

My cousin Tom sent me a text message when he heard about Uncle Jimmy's passing that simply said "Great Man." I can understand where Tom was coming from, but he was wrong because Uncle Jimmy wasn't just a great man, he was the Greatest! I know how blessed I was to have him in my life!

May the peace of Christ reign in your hearts.
