Not sure what to say?

Like a shepherd He will tend His flock. In His arm He will gather the lambs, and carry them in His bosom; He will gently lead the nursing ewes. Isaiah 40:11 These words tell us of the Lord's heart toward His children, but they were also Jim's heart toward his flock at CCC. Jim followed the Master and we were all richer because of it.

Known Jim and Kathy for almost 40 years. Couldn't love them more. So many memories. Jim's sense of humor, his jokes, his passion and love. He was always available and always knew just the right words. We will miss him, but glad he is with the Lord now. This is not where it ends, we will see him again !!

Jim had a big influence in my spiritual journey. Thank you Jim and Kathy, for revealing to me the gift of service, and introducing me to the wonder of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I was so happy to have a little brother when you were born. And I was always glad to hear the postive things you did with your life with sports,marriage, your children and church. May your name be remembered for a blessing. May your family find comfort on each other.
Love to you, your family and friends. Marilynn (Grabo) Rosenberg (sister)

Sorry about the loss of Mr. Grabo. I am praying for the family

What a truly wonderful man Jim was, his teaching impacts my life to this day, years after moving from Florida, prayers of solace and comfort to his beloved family and church family.

I was blessed to call you Uncle. Thank you for your support throughout the years. It's a comfort to know that you're now by His side looking down on us. You'll be missed.

May we all understand that Jim leaves each of us far better than he found us. His model of the Servant Leader was lived out in way that changed who we are today.

Because of that, he will forever continue to change those we come in contact with. And so it goes on. It is the Master's plan and Jim, through his faithfulness to the plan, allowed himself to be shaped by the Potter's hands and used for God's Great Glory.

An imperfect man, with a heart to please God more than...

You helped me when my faith was weak.. you helped me marry the love of my life, you helped me through my sons death... thanks for always being there, always a rock for the Lord in a life filled with sand. I thank God for you and pray for your family...
