To you all...your dad, your mom, such special memories of them! They simply were always there, helping, smiling, laughing, and working! They are now together again! Know we share your grief and will always remember them. Dad and mom loved them both, and they helped them with out reservation.

We are so sorry we will not be able to attend Jim's services. We are on a road trip. We missed seeing him at Old Settlers Days this year. Prayers for peace and comfort for his family. Archie and Vicki Little

Jim was a very special person. I used to get a hug from him whenever I saw him. Then I broke 5 ribs .... no more hugs for quite awhile. Jim would help me out whenver I needed help. Cathy would help and the 3 of us accomplished many projects together. Cathy and I started treating Jim to dinner, the last one was for his 84th birthday. Cathy was very special to Jim and he would always ask about her when i ran into him.
