Not sure what to say?

I always enjoyed Jim when he came into my office or if I ran into him at a Seahawks game. He always put a smile on my face as well as all the others in my office. I personally feel like I have lost a friend. If the world were full of James Slostads, it would be a much better place. Over the last few days, my prayers have been with his family. At night before I put my children to bed and we pray, we always ask God for a special covering over the Slostad family. We have lost a great man,...

Arlene we are so sorry to hear about Jim, he will be missed by all of us here at the insurance office. Our prayers are with you at this difficult time. It always breaks my heart when someone as friendly and happy go lucky as him leaves this earth.

Our deepest and most sincerest sympathy to Arlene, Family and Friends of Jim. We will greatly miss his visits and consistant thoughtfulness. Dorothy was always deeply touched by his visits over the years and was considered as part of the family. It's been a pleasure to know both Jim and Arlene.

Jim was truely an inspiration. His zest for life and constant positive attitude show how a life is to be lived. It was always a pleasure to be in his presence.

We will all miss Jim's love and enthusiasm for the cars we all enjoy. We will treasure his wonderful and happy personality and the the times we shared.

I feel like I knew Jim forever, yet only a few very memorable years. I will miss Jim and his way of always getting it done. He was a "Peddler" to the end.

Jim was a good friend and Healey mentor who treated me like one of the family. He was larger than life and will be deeply missed. My heart goes out to Arlene and all of his family.

Healey tours without Jim won't be the same. We'll have to bring our own parts, and eat his share of the cookies! He left a big hole in our lives. Hugs to Arlene.

I think the class of 1958 are all saddened and shocked to hear of the passing of Jim.
He was a joy to know and always upbeat.I saw him last June and he was always the same Jim, happy to see you and sorry for any ills in my family.
He especially wanted me to be at our 50th class reunion and I was unable to because of my Dale being ill.
To the family of Jim my deepest sympathy and Jim will be missed.
