There is no other man in this world that I would have ever considered to have known and look up to as a Father figure in my life. Although we were not blood related,I only new him as my Uncle Jim.

You don't realize how much you miss someone until they are no longer with you. We all take life for granite and do not cherish and take advantage of our spare time to spend with each other. I think we should take a step back and think about how short life is and embrace one another and never forget to hug your mom, dad,brothers, sisters, wife etc. and most importantly tell them that you LOVE em!

There was only one man besides my Father, who made a big impression on me as far my work ethics, and my outlook on life. That was Jim. You wouldn't think it the way he talked sometimes, but he had a great love for his children,and his wife, Diane. He was a tough and headstrong man, and I will never forget him. My prayers and sympathy go out to Diane and Family.
