Dear Uncle Jimmy,
You were our guardian in life and I know you will continue to watch over us all from above. I love you very much. I will miss you forever. I remember the karate when you first began, when I was your practice dummy. I remember when you went bird hunting with Duke and then wouldn't eat the meat. But when grandma called it chicken , it didn't taste half bad. I remember the family weekends in Packwood. I truely believe you were more a brother than our uncle. The memories are all so vivid right now. Please relay to mom and dad we are okay, but it's not the same and never will be. So many of you are together now, I bet the party has begun. I'm not afraid of death because I cherish the moment when we will reunite once again.
I love you and the good times will be in my heart forever.

It was truly a pleasure to have been able to work with Jim. He was very instrumental in restoring the Tool & Die apprenticeship program back to Boeing and I was fortunate to have been able to train with and learn from him. He was a mentor and a friend and will be missed.

Jim was a true leader and personal role model for many who had the pleasure of working with and for him during his years at Boeing. My prayers go out for his family as they adjust to his loss.

I knew Jim from work and he was quite the character, always good for proper insight and a laugh. He knew his job and was one of the best at it. He will be missed not only by family but former co-workers

I was blessed with the honor of working with Jim for many years at Boeing. I loved his great sense of humor and his wonderful work ethic. I ran into him several months ago at Safeway in Puyallup and it was a great surprise. He will be missed by many. My prayers to his family as they deal with his loss.

Dear Uncle Jimmy, I will never forget you chasing grandma's siamese cats off your bed when you came home in high school, or showing me your newest karate moves when I was about 5. Most of all I will always remember how you always held the family together with love and took care of everyone. We are so proud and honored that God gave you to us as a wonderful example of a husband to Aunt Lynda a Son and Brother and Man. I know you are with our family in Heaven as we grieve and miss you, they are rejoicing and welcoming you home. We will wait to see you again I know you are watching over us. May God Keep Aunt Lynda, Dad and the kids broken hearts at peace and rest in his arms. The Marines had nothing on you. YOU WERE THE FINEST AND ALWAYS ROSE TO THE TOP!! Tell Grandpa Raymond I love him and Grandma Blanche I love her too and miss spending the weekends with them. I love you so much and will pray for our family.
