Much Sympathy and Many Prayers for all. Words just can't express the sadness of loosing someone you've known for 34 years. Jim was such a hard and dedicated worker. He put his heart and soul into HALE, always striving for the best outcome possible. Jim will be missed, but he will also be fondly remembered for all his kindness and his many great accomplishments in life. Now that Jim has been called home to our Lord, we can rest assured that Jim is no longer suffering, and is now at peace surrounded by Gods Heavenly Angels.
