My heartfelt condolences to the Bates Family in the loss of your loved one. Please find comfort in knowing God is close to the brokenhearted. May God comfort your hearts during this difficult time and give you peace, strength and hope in the days ahead (Jeremiah 29:11,12).

With sympathy wishing you many peace filled memories 2nd Thessalonians 3:16 "Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace constantly in every way. May the Lord be with all of you."

May angels watch over you and the family, April

I'm so very sorry about the loss of the love of your life, April. There really isn't anything we can say, just to let you know we'll be here for you in any way we can. Love you both so much and now Jim is free, to roam the Heavens, talk to all the family and friends gone before him. We lose him, and Heaven gains him. There will be some work God has for him up there. I will be here for you, please don't ever forget that. Love you, Eve

Deepest condolences to the family and friends of the Bates family during this most difficult time. There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someone so beloved may you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in God's memory because those who pass on "are precious in His eyes." Psalms 116: 15

So sorry for your loss. You are all in our thoughts and prayets.

Just knowing Jim you could not help but love him; the man was a darling. I did not get to know his children but was privileged to witness the love between Jim and April. God truly put them together and God will keep them always in each other's hearts. I celebrate the life of Jimmy Bates; his courage, his humor, his strength and his love he shared with us all.

So sorry to read of this. My love and prayers are with all of you as you remember this wonderful man. God bless you all.
