Not sure what to say?

I graduated from Trenton High School with Jim and remember him as a very nice person. My condolences to his family

We were very sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He taught the Love and Logic parenting class that we attended and was such a wonderful teacher and helped us very much. Our prayers are with his family at this time

Jim and I ran parenting groups for many years thourgh the AEA. I still miss leading those groups with Jim. He was a joy to work with, and a considerate, thoughtful person. I still hear from parents that attended the groups how he changed their lives. Jim was the magician at birthday parties and delighted in teaching my daughters any new magic trick or balloon animal that he had learned. He touched the lives of so many people and changed the lives of so many, not only this generation but...

I am so saddened by Jim's passing. I will miss him terribly. He was a kind and loving person who helped many children and adults. My prayers are with his family and friends.

Jim was a wonderful man with a deep sense of compassion to all who crossed his path. He touched many lives through his personal and professional relationships. I was a principal in the C.B. Schools and Jim was a gift to all of us who knew him and worked with him to assist children in need. My prayers are with his family at this difficult time.

I knew Jim from my days as a teacher at Abraham Lincoln and a short stint as a consultant at AEA 13. His great sense of humor was always evident, and I was always glad when our paths crossed. My condolences to the family.

I worked with Jim in Council Bluffs and will always remember his kind caring words. He was always supportive and helpful. His dedication to children and their families was obvious in all he did. He will be missed.

I was privileged to work with Jim for a number of years at Bloomer School. He was such a calm, loving influence on the children and always found the good in everyone.
He will be remembered fondly.

I was shocked when I found out about the tragic loss of Jim.

I was blessed to have Jim as our neighbor, for many years. He was a very gracious and caring person.

The world is missing a wonderful person.

I hope that Jim's family can find comfort in knowing how many lives Jim touched
