It was always such a wonderful moment to be greeted by Jim and spend time talking. We knew Jim and the Glines family after living across the street from them in the early 60´s. Jim was, without a doubt, everyone´s friend.

No single person will be able to fill Jim's shoes. His unique combination of intellect, experience, compassion and humor is irreplaceable. Jim was a consummate professional with a rare ability to make every person he met feel special. He has left this earth a better place. God bless his family and especially, Kathy, who was always by his side.
