Mr.Hanson was the coolest teacher at Riverside Elementary all the students loved him! He was always so caring to everyone.

Jim was an extraordinary man, who possessed so many talents. We enjoyed some memorable years teaching together at Riverside Elementary. I will remember him for his sharp wit, his infectious laugh, and his genuine caring for the children he taught. Many fond memories of the work that we did together with Karen. Peace and love, Jim.

Rosemarie and JJ - and to all family. So sad to hear of your loss. Hoping that time will heal the pain of his loss.
Will be thinking of you all and keeping you in our prayers!
Love Donita Bouton and family
