I just found out about Jim's passing. My condolences to the entire Wilke family. I met John at UNO and in 1980 Gary & I built a home right next door to Jim and Suzanne. I am so saddened by this news. To know Jim was to love him and my heart hurts for the entire family. Lynn Sortino Malolepszy

Jeff and Heidi,
Sorry to hear this Jeff. I fondly remember the great time we had out at Fonner with you two, Jim and Suzanne years ago. In fact, that might have been the "blue comb" incident. Rest in peace Jim (and belatedly Suzanne).
