Jim as we knew was a true friend, a person whom we could count in times of need.I still remember the day when he spent half of the night working in my ranch because i was out and the next day was predicted to be bad weather.That was the kind of friend he was.Ever eager to help.

He lived a content and fulfilling life.

May his soul rest in peace.

May god give his family and friends strength to bear this irreplacable loss.
