Our sympathy!We knew Jim through the Peace Seekers and frankly, had no knowledge of his many other Christian involvements. We appreciated his efforts for the Peace Seekers and know he must have been a dear friend of Tom Haebig. What a greart example of a Christian life!! Norm and Dorrie Alff

Ann, My deepest sympathies to you and the kids. Time has gone by but every time I drive by your house in Sheboygan Falls, I think of the time our homeroom went to your house, and all of us kids climbed on your bed and watched TV. Jim I don' think knew what to say, as Robert was the only person worried about his home work. Thank you for showing the class of 1988 homeroom your love. Jim was always smiles and he will be truly missed. I will be praying for you this evening, as this is a hard time in a persons life. May God wrap His loving arms around you.

So sorry for your loss Ann! Met Jim in EC and later on in Sheboygan Falls. He had a great sense of humor. I would loved to have been at family gatherings with Jim and your brother Mike. That would have been a comedy act for sure. I was in Bridgeman hall with Mike (4th East).
Cherish the memories!
