I can still see Jim's smile in my mind, and I'll have it forever in my heart. His great attitude was such a bright spot in my meetings with him at the Doctor's office, or Oncology suite. I am so glad that I had the chance to meet him and his family there. Sending my prayers your way.

We know Jim from Holy Spirit Church. He was a true Christian and he deeply loved his family and church. He will be missed by many but never forgotten.

To the entire Longaker family, our deepest condolences. Mr. Longaker left a lasting and powerful impression on so many. He was a light to others, a mentor to many and a gift to us all. He made a difference in the world. I have many wonderful memories of times shared: from childhood when the Guttshall and Longaker kids played together, to our many church events and Strawberry Festivals. Glory to God in Heaven for the life of Mr. Longaker. He will be missed.

Heartfelt condolences to all of Jim's family and friends. Marie, you and Jim were such a compliment to each other. Always fun, joyful and a delight to be around. I have such special memories of Jim at our Super Bowl parties. I still have my portion of the dollar that Jim, Mike and I tore into thirds, intiialed them and each year at Super Bowl we would switch the pieces. It was silly, fun and now it is a treasure. I am very grateful for the pleasure of having known and had Jim in my life. Prayers and God Bless.

To Marie and family. We will miss Jim. We know Marie and Jim through Carl Lambeck my brother-in-law. We had many wonderful visits togehter at family parties over the years at Carl's. If you need anything please give us a call (856-228-2879). I still remember his stand on soda can trick to crush it down, he always suprised me with his steady balance. I think he lived his live that way too. God Bless. Perry and Jeanette Schwartzburt.

I first met your Dad last year, while keeping my sister company during her chemo sessions. We were touched when he entered the room, with his beautiful smile and happily sharing his lunch with whoever brought him that day. He certainly delighted in his family and in his cream cheese and green olive sandwiches. What an appetite! We both realized what a lucky family to have him for a father. My sympathies to all of you. God Bless. Fran Street

Dad you'll be missed by so many people. But you will never be forgoten. May you finally rest in peace. By the way God was looking for a good handyman and he sure found it you. Don't know if the man in charge up there plays dominoes or not so you might have to teach him.

To Aunt Marie and family - I am so sorry about Uncle Jim's passing. He was probably one of the nicest, upbeat people I ever met. I am so glad that both of you got to spend a little time with me in Florida. Guess he will be in charge of the Skip-Bo games up there, huh! Love, Donna
