James Keith Pettit

Jim Pettit and his wife Pat were definitely some of the nicest people that I came across during my racing career. My son used to sit with them in the Antioch grandstand when he was very young, and they always treated him like he was a member of their family.

I pray that the entire Pettit family will be comforted in knowing that Big Jim and Pat are back together again now for eternity, and I send my deepest condolences to them all.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My deepest condolences.

We are so very sad to hear about Jim's passing.
He was a character, I remember him with his
big cigar and his love of his family, wife
and him at the race track. He will be missed for sure .!

may you be as blessed in heaven as you were on earth

To the man who made my racing career possible.
THANK YOU BIG JIM!

What a character. Heaven gained a true gentleman in every sense of the word. Hugs to his fa,ily and friends. ALWAYS DID LIKE 4's. ♦♣♥♠

Our condolences to the entire Pettit Family. You're all top shelf! Steve Hall , Anne Edwards/Hall.

Jim and Family, so sorry for your loss. Had many happy times talking to your Mom and Dad at Merced. Prayers for you all. Wonderful Family!

Oh my, I am very sad to hear of Big Jim's passing. Fortunately I have many wonderful memories of him through my decades of working for the Seaside Police Department. We towed many a car together. He was very protective of police officers which was truly appreciated.
I was impressed that he and his wife could actually work "work" together and not clobber each other! I always thought, that must be true love and it was. At least now, they are together again.
My condolences to his family.

So very so for loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Rest In Peace Big Jim. John Sheets
