I send my deepest sympathy to the family. Jim was a real joy to be around. He was like family to me. He knew my parents and my Aunt Linda. Whenever we had get together and music was playing, he was my shagging dance partner. My family enjoyed our get togethers with him and Aunt Linda. Jim was amazing building the Fords. I wanted everyone of them. I was so sorry to hear of his passing. He will be remembered and in my heart forever. God Bless you all. Kathi Martin
