Not sure what to say?

We met Jim when we both lived in the same KSA compound in the 1990s and we have remained friends ever since. Jim & Frances visited us in the UK a few years ago and we treasure their friendship. Despite a number of set backs Jim always had a positive outlook on life and would assist in anyway he could. You will be sorely missed by all who knew you.

Jimmy and I grew up together. Our back yards connected. We spent many summer days playing board games at a card table set up in the back yard. I last saw him and his wife at a high school picknic last month in Helen, Ga. He was a good friend and I will miss him. His parents were always good to me and I miss them also. My best wishes go out to his family at this time.

From all these lovely comments and from knowing Robin Roquemore, I know that he was a great man. I know he had a huge part in Robin's life and she is a wonderful lady, due in a large part to him. So everyone that is blessed to know her has been blessed through him. His heart and influence lives on through those he has influenced. I pray for comfort at this difficult time.

My prayers to all the family. Pop was an awesome father-in-law and one I will cherish forever. He will be greatly missed.

Our prayers are with your family.
Jim and I grew up together on Westmont Rd. in Atlanta.He would stop by our house and walk to school with my sister and I.We were in the Boy Scouts together.He had a gental yet powerful Soul.We will miss him very much.

I was privileged to sit second chair to Jimmy long ago in the clarinet section of the Southwest High School Band. (We called ourselves the grusome twosome.) I valued him as a great friend during those high school years, and although our paths diverged after high school, I cherish the memories of that time. I join you in mourning his passing.

So sorry to hear that Jim died and will pray that God, family and friends will comfort you right now and for years to come. I am always here for you if you want to talk. Jim meant the world to Bill and I in our Saudi days and can still picture him performing in the Beach Boys band! So glad y'all had so many wonderful years together. God bless you my friend. Love you. Please stay in touch.

Frances,
My prayers are with you. I am so sorry to hear of Jimmy's passing. It is a hard thing especially at this time of year. God Bless you and the rest of the family.

Jimmy, We have been old friends since we first met in the 10th grade Home Room at Southwest. We did alot together, double dated in your 40 Ford, had our first Beer together at my Uncles home in Birmingham, followed behind the Krispy Kreem delevery truck and took some but not all of the fresh Donuts for our breakfast at one of your sleepovers, drove in through the exit backwards at the local drive-in movie. I will fondly remember these times along with many , many more it was my honor to have...
