It is hard to believe Jim is gone but we rest in the hope that we have that he is rejoicing in heaven! Jim has been a part of our C1 family since we first started going there over 10 years ago. Memories of seeing him weekly at church, being in Bible Study together and serving along side him at resale are memories we will hold close to our heart. It was so evident how much Jim loved the Lord and his valiant battle against cancer made that even more evident. Sending many hugs and much love to Marylois and Alan.

This guy had the most wonderful laugh! Jim was easy to be around, with a quick mind and a loving heart. Through his life his trust in the Lord was a model for the rest of us. Marylois, you and Alan made him complete.

I remember William as he hung around with my kids when they were in High School and this was at Moraine Valley Church - we really had good memories with him. Praying that God will fill your family with His comfort and His peace and sending lots of hugs.

Riemo was a great guy! From the time I got to know him as his Youth Pastor in Oak Lawn, I have enjoyed Jim's company and friendship over the years. I also appreciated Jim's great faith and firm convictions on the Word of the Lord. He and MaryLois have meant so much to both of us. Now he's with the Lord!

Because you received Jesus as your Savior, you have entered the presence of God! We love you and will miss you but will join you sometime in the future. You left a wonderful legacy of loving God and Family. It was always a pleasure visiting with you during my trips up North; the last time was September 2019. I will miss that in the future. Your sweet family is in my prayers.
