Not sure what to say?

Hello Kurt, Kelly & Janeen......it has been a good many years since we have seen each other but wanted to give our thoughts and concerns on the passing of Jim. I was at the service but had to leave before chatting with you all. Kevin and Bart Case

Kurt, Kelly, Janeen and families: I am so saddened to learn of your dad's passing. He always had the biggest and best smile ever. I pray your memories of the best of times carry you through this difficult time.

We are so sorry to hear about Jim's passing. So glad he is resting in God's arms. Prayers for Carol and the family.
Melani and Mike

Very very sad news. He will be missed by many. Rest in peace my friend.

Jim Kerns exemplified all the qualities of a great man, husband, friend, father, and grandfather. He showed great kindness, love and care for all. I am honored to have known him and proud to witness his qualities living on within his family members. He was a rock and he will be missed.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

With deepest sympathy,
The Class of 76.

I've known Jim for all of my life. He was family. He always took such great pride when I would tell him how much he reminded me of his dad Merritt. Merritt and Hazel raised a good boy. Rest in peace old friend.

My memory of Jim during high school is of a person always upbeat and positive. I had the opportunity to visit with Jim during one of his business trips to Missouri. He remained his genuine congenial nature. I also met him a couple of years ago at one of the alumni breakfasts in Wichita. Still upbeat. A good guy. A sad loss.
