Jeannine and I (Chuck) have been good friends since the early 1960s when we lived in Portalas, NM and he lived in Clovis. We talked to him not long before his death. Jim was a wonderful friend with a great sense of humor.

I will always remember the many hours we spent with Jim and Noni together serving Jehovah in field service. And the fun times at playing golf, too. Many times EATING at various cafes there. Looking forward to the resurrection when we can enjoy each other again!

My condolences to Jim's family, especially his spiritual family. All the years I was in the Clovis congregation, Jim always flashed his sweet smile and encouraged all. Looking forward to seeing him again in that new world so very close at hand.

We have known Jim over 50 years. He will surely be missed by a lot of people. Even though we moved away from Clovis in 1977, we managed to stay in touch. We got to see Jim just last September. My Jim looks forward to challenging Jim VS to a ping pong match in the new world so close. Sleep tight, dear brother. Jesus will call. Jim will answer. We look forward to that day.
