Dear Steckel family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you during your loss. I first meet Jim when he served as my table leader of the mens 98th Cum Cristro. Jim impacted my life in many different ways. He was a great memtor. We also served together on several Karios weekends.

It is our destiny that one day we stand in Profound Sorrow, bowing our head in Humility before the Mystery of Death.
My wife Joan joins me in extending our deepest sympathy to Gloria and the rest of the family on the loss of a wonderful Husband, Father, Roll Model, Jim Steckel.

To The Steckel Family,

As the Executive Director for NFIB/Ohio, I have known Jim for almost 20 years. He was one of the original Leadership Council members when I was first hired, and served as my Chairman for two terms.

In my humble opinion, Jim was a giant in the central Ohio business community, and through his unselfish involvement in so many organizations he has left a lasting legacy for the betterment of so many Ohioans.

Jim had many wonderful characteristics but...

To the Steckel Family, We are so sorry for your loss. Mr. Steckel was such a wonderful neighbor and we always enjoyed his Sigma Chi stories. We are sending our thoughts and prayers to you all!

My thoughts and prayers are with you as you celebrate the life of a truly wonderful human being. He will be missed.

To the Seckel family, I send my sympathies. It was an honor to know and serve with Jim on the NFIB Guardian council for many years. God Bless!

Uncle Jim,
Your name always fit you well, a 'gem' of a man!! I will always remember my visits to Ohio and spending time with you, Aunt Gloria, Scotty, and Kathie...you always greeted me with your big old bear hug, and your laughter I will never forget.
Thank you for all your insight on life, I love the chats we shared through out the years!
You were truly an amazing and gentle man. I could have never asked for a better uncle than you. I will miss you dearly, but I know you will...
