Not sure what to say?

Dave, I am so sorry to hear of your Dad´s passing. He was pretty special! Know that Christmas will be tough but Father´s Day will be the roughest. Just know I am thinking of you. Dan

Beyond his success in athletics and business, I'll always recall with distinction the loving relationship Jim had with his wife and family. His son David is the most familiar family person to me. He loved his father and the mutual admiration between the two glowed and their closeness was apparent in business and life. What an example they set. Bravo!

David, I am so very sorry for your loss. Your dad certainly was an accomplished man. I understand more about your life from reading his obituary. I´m sure he was proud to have you following in his great footsteps! Diane Tew

My sincere condolences to Susie and Dave and their extended families. Uncle Jim had a life well-lived and leaves his family with quite a legacy. I remember as a kid thinking he was larger than life. With a busy career, he was able to raise three amazing people. We are thinking of all of you at this time. With love, Cousin Kim

Lorraine, we are sorry for your loss but what memories you must have. Jim had a wonderful life from his days playing sports and coaching to his corporate career. But the love of family was his greatest gift. He adored you and really liked his island vacations.
