James "Jim" Marion Rhodes

My dearest friend, you left us far too soon for your eternal home. As I reminisced with Juanita, we fondly recalled those wonderful early days of our journey and the business partnerships we built more than 30 years ago. Your unwavering support was invaluable, and for that, we will always be grateful.

The memories and stories from our many travels together are countless moments filled with joy, laughter, and shared experiences that will forever enrich our lives. I thank God for the gift of your friendship, for your kind heart, and for the generosity that always defined you.

Dearest Jim, we will miss you deeply, but your spirit will live on in the hearts of all who have the privilege of knowing you. Your kindness, wisdom, and unwavering support have left an everlasting mark on our lives, and we will cherish your memory forever.

To Cindy, Stephanie, and Allison may you find comfort in the beautiful memories you shared with Jim, and may God´s infinite love bring you peace and strength during this difficult time. May you always feel his presence in the love that surrounds you, the lives he touched, and the legacy of kindness he leaves behind.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Being around Jim was to always be at a warm and uproarious party of close friends. He was larger than life, the natural center of the event, and a gracious host. Whatever may come in my future, I know that there will be a spicy feast, great conversation, and a neon welcome sign over his door in heaven. I look forward to it.

Continued prayers to Cindy and the entire Rhodes family. Jim was truly one of the kindest gentlemen I've ever worked with.

My deepest condolences, I am sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and family during this difficult time

My deepest Condolences to the family, so sorry to hear this. May he rest in peace.

Jim and I started our friendship as business associates when he was working at Abasco. Through the decades we became good if not close friends. Jan and I will never forget the weekend we spent with Jim and Cindy in New Orleans. We tailgated at a Nichols State game and then a New Orleans vs Colts game. Mothers, Acme Oyster House, Central Grocery and Cafe Mondo that weekend. I have been retired now for seven years but we remained friends throughout. I will miss you Jim!!

My deepest condolences and prayers. May you Rest In Peace.

Jim was a member of our JFK `77 graduating class in New Orleans. He sponsored our reunions and enjoyed celebrating the Blue and Gold anytime we needed help!
Praying for his family´s peace and comfort.
