Father Jim was my mentor, spiritual director and friend. During the beginning of my bout with cancer in 2021-22, his prayers and words of encouragement helped me get through a very rough time. When I was ready to give up he wouldnt let me. I would not be here today without him forcing me to fight. Thank you Father Jim. A true man of God. Loved by all. You will be missed.

Dear Marie and Family,
Donna and I cannot begin to share with you how very sad we are about Father Jim´s death. We are saddened with the realization that it is our reminiscences that now must sustain us.
Father Jim was an exceptional person, and he truly touched our lives in very special ways.
We will treasure the priceless moment Father Jim bonded us in marriage, twenty-three years ago.
We will also treasure the priceless moment Father Jim bonded our Granddaughter, Caitlin in marriage one year ago.
We know that there are no words that can heal the hurt that you and your family feel. Please know that our words of caring, friendship, support, and love are with you always.
May Father Jim forever rest in peace.
With our love,
Donna and Maxwell Riggsbee
