I saw Jim at the Sandwich Hamfest in early May and we had a nice visit. I always appreciated Jim's help with our Radio Club equipment repairs. Also fixing our Mustang and home airconditioning. I always looked forward to seeing Jim and Ray at the Dayton, Ohio Hamvention every year. Even though we still live a block north of your old house in Glendale Heights, I enjoyed coming out to the house in Belvedere and Davis so Jim could help me with the...

My condolences to Ruth Ann, Kim, Robin, Lori & their families, & Lewy & Gail on the passing of "Mickey" - such a good, kind, funny guy. It is a blessing Jim is no longer suffering - your family now has a new angel in heaven looking down on you.

I am so grateful Jim & Ruth, along with Ron & Mary Lou, were able to come to Lewy's 65th Surprise Birthday Party in 2006 in McComb, MS. It was a wonderful little reunion of the siblings - Mary Lou, Jim & Lewis - and I was honored to have the...

We are very sorry to hear about Jim. I still remember him playing the organ. I think thats why I started playing. Lot's of memories from when you lived in Schiller Park. Our thoughts are with all of you.

I have such great memories of being around 8 or 9 years old and getting rides on Jim and Louie's Cushman scooter. Year's later, I had Honda and finally BMW motorcycles, all because of the rides from the Ryder brothers. The Ryder's were such great neighbors. My thoughts are with your family.

My brothers and I are saddened to learn of Jim's death. We have many fond memories of Jim and of growing up next door to the Ryders in East Lansing. We send our love and condolences to the family.

I'm saddened to hear of Mickey's passing...my prayers go out to Ruthie and family. He will always remain the charming, fun-loving guy in my memories.Anne (Dunham) Meyer
