Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Jim's many kindnesses and thoughtful and caring ways, especially to those in need. He was a man who gave and gave and gave until there was nothing left to give. I guess that's why the Lord called him home: he gave his all.
And how can you forget Jim's love of walking? I can still see him in his Redskins jacket and hat walking on Old Keene Mill Road heading to Nativity Church to attend the Saturday morning mass, especially on those bitterly cold mornings. He inspired...

I bring you all greetings in the name of our Risen Lord at this time, as you mourn the loss of your beloved one, Jim Scott. Please remember that his soul is resting with the Lord, and it is well with his soul, it is well!

Jim was a faithful Kairos brother, always attending the weekends,giving his time and presence. I rode with Jim a number of times to the prison. I could tell it was a hardship for him, but he never complained. He always was cheerful and optomistic. I will always remember him. May God bless his family and friends. We will miss him.

I played weekly indoor tennis with Jim for a few years and always looked forward to our matches. He was an excellent player who always had a kind word for both his team mates and opponents. Jim also did voluntary seasonal tax work and we conversed often as I also do tax work. He will surely be missed.

The wisdom I received from Jim by just talking to him was worth his weight in gold. I will truly miss him.

Mr. Scott lived with us over the last eight years, was part of our family, and is deeply missed. He was a source of comfort and calm stability; a dependable, pleasant and gentle man. The girls looked up to him and the fine example he set with his work ethic and numerous volunteer efforts. Mr. Scott was very giving and asked little to nothing of others in return. He was loved very much.

God's Love showed through Jim's smile.
His humble steady service was an inspiration to us all.
