To All:
Jim was a man of God, a roll model of a father, a friend one can not forget or replace and most of all he was love in action and a great example for all to follow. I will miss him always.

The first time I met Jim was at his cabinetry shop. My brother Austin introduced us and from then on I heard some funny stories from those two. I got to dance with Jim at my brother Jerry's wedding reception in 2002. It was a slow dance but I will never forget it. I wish I had gotten to know Jim the way my brothers did. My sympathy to all the family and Jim's close friends.

Dear Bonnie,
You and your dad were a great witness together of what love between a father and daughter should look like. May it always comfort you in knowing that he has a brand new body and he awaits for you with our Lord. May Gods'love, grace,strength,peace and joy rest upon you, always. May His face shine upon you and may you find the rest you so well deserve in Jesus, now. I love you, Bonnie.
