My Mr. Jim taught me so much from the moment I met him. He shared himself with so many and always had more to give. He will always be in my heart and I will miss him dearly.

My heart is heavy... it will be very difficult for me to say good- bye to The Big Guy. Jim gave me the opportunity to represent his company and I feel so blessed. Jim, you will be missed!

Uncle Jimmy

Although I haven't seen you in a while, I thank you for all the great memories we shared during my youth. You were a great guy to talk to about anything and you always were straight to the point. My parents had a lot of respect and admiration for you and now you guys can tell "old war story's" again. Thanks again, Uncle Jimmy for your support during difficult times. May God bless you and welcome you home.
