Mrs. Hamilton and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss and I hope that God can help you and your family through this rough time. I went to school with him at Miller-Motte. I enjoyed meeting him and he was a friendly person and very helpful. At our graduation, every girl was helping him when he hurt his ankle to make sure he had everything he needed. I am sure going to miss him, he was a very delightful person.

To Jim's Mother, Family, and his many friends... I only learned of Jim's passing this morning. Jim and I were friends for many years, and Jim was an excellent employee while he worked for me at the traffic reporting service in Chattanooga. I will always remember his smile, and great attitude. He was my friend, and I will miss him.
