Jim was one of my very closest friends in high school, and while I was attending college. He visited me numerous times after I moved from our Home town. He was my hunting buddy as well. I lost track of Jim over the years and was unable to find him. This is heart breaking to me. He was a very fine man, and a warm soul. May you rest in peace my friend.

I served with Jim in the Marines. He was a great person and I am so sorry for your loss. He will always be remembered for being a great role model and a great friend. RIP brother.
