It´s so hard to pick one memory when you have shared so many. Jim always had a big smile on his face and a warm hug. We went on a few trips with Jim and Roxanne, Hawaii and Cancun and Las Vegas. Our group loved playing Mexican Train for hours. Drinks, food and laughs were always around. I know Jim was suffering and I am so grateful the good Lord took him home. He will be missed.
Love,
Nancy and Lee Potter
