Not sure what to say?

Our Uncle Jim had an adamant belief in close family ties that made him an exceptional brother to his many siblings and caring son to his parents.

Each of us is blessed to have had wonderful moments of our very own where he touched our lives. He was a loyal, kind, and generous man to all he met...

So sorry to hear about Jim's death. You are in my thoughts & prayers. Blessings, Lois Grindle

Uncle Jim and my dad, Bill, in their Navy uniforms c. 1950.

My Uncle Jim was important to my family in so many ways, right from the beginning and till the very end. When he & my dad served in the Navy together, he lived with my mom, dad, & sister and grew very close to all of them.

I will miss the service for Jim but I'll be with all with my love and prayers. He was a wonderful brother-in-law and it won't be the same without him!
