Barb and the entire Dodge family, What a shock to learn of my old pal Jimmys' unfortunate passing. I have some great memories when we ran together back in the day and will never lose them.

Dear Barb and children the very best memories I have growing up in Mt. Pulaski were with Jim! We became best friends in the 5th. Grade and were inseparable I guess until 10 grade or so when a special girl named Barb French became his best friend! We played baseball, hung out at the bowling alley and cruised the square together! We de-tassled at Bo-Jacs, rode motorcycles, hunted and went swimming in lake ditch in the summer and sledding down Holmes hill in winter...so many fun memories! I'm so sorry for your loss and pray a wonderful God embraces and welcomes Jim into everlasting glory!
