Whenever I think of Jim, I think of the love he had for his daughter. His workspace was always filled with her pictures and he was always so proud of Jillian.

I think it was in 2002 on my first business trip to the US when I met Jim for the first time. Many working sessions did follow. Once I had the privilege to meet him here in Germany.
I will always remember him as a very helpful man with a very fine and warm sense of humor.
My thoughts are with Jim's family.

Unfortunately I did not learn of Jim's passing until last week. I met Jim and Continental and he was a good friend and mentor. My husband I offer our thoughts and prayers to his family. We are really sorry we did not keep in touch more after he retired from Continental. We thoroughly enjoyed his company.

So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. As a colleague and friend from Continental (General), he is fondly remembered by many of us in the Finance and Accounting area. He was ever dependable, always willing to lend a hand to those in need and quick with a joke at the right time. Most importantly, he always beamed with pride when speaking of his daughter and hopeful when speaking of the Bills. Our thoughts to his family. He will be missed.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Jillian and all of Jim's family and friends. I first met Jim in 1979 in Pittsburgh. He was a district Operating Supervisor over retail stores for General Tire, while I was a wet behind the ears internal auditor. Eventually our careers would cross again and I had the privilege of being Jim's boss for a number of years before his retirement.
There are many good things to remember about Jim. He was such a devoted father - had his office area covered with pictures of his daughter. I always appreciated his excellent work, his friendship, honesty, and sense of humor. I also appreciated the way he cared for others around him. After his retirement he would call every so often just to check on everybody and catch up.
He was always kind, always a friend, and I will miss him.
Blessings,
John Ralston

My sincerest condolences to my Uncle's family. He was beloved and kind to all of those whom he touched in his life. Uncle Jim gave me the encouragement, drive and inspiration to pursue a 24 year career in the USAF. He will be sorely missed, especially his everlasting enthusiasm and devotion in all aspects of Buffalo N.Y. sports activity. Love you Uncle Jim, miss you and rest in everlasting peace. Your loving nephew, Johnnie.

Psalms 118:6, tells us that God is on our side, what could earthling men possibly do to us. How loving to know no matter what we go through God is always with us.
