Dear Eunice, Terry and families,
We were saddened to learn of Jim's passing. He was a such a good man, and school friend, and friend from Milton Center. Many memories of Jim, playing basketball on the Westwood High team. We Studers and Kronberg families were part of a church family in Milton Center for as long as I can remember
Jim also played a large part by being in our wedding party. He stood in as a friend to both of us,( as my brother could not be there.)
We will always remember Jim with such fond memories.
Sincerely,

Jack and Mary Mercer
