Peace be upon you good brother. You are missed beyond words. I really wish we had gotten to speak again and I will never ever forget you and all that you did for me as well as countless others. If there were more people like you in the world, it would be such a better place to be. I'll remember you always. Travel light and in peace bro. See ya on the other side on the physical.

Oh wow!!! This has broken my heart... We reconnected on the computer after years of not hearing from each other.. He was the kindest most caring person I know.. We went to High School together, and hung out a lot.. May he RIP!!! We talked a lot and I had just talked to him through texting on Aug. 4, 2022.. I thought he was doing better and getting ready to go back Overseas as soon as his results were in... I just found out last nite.. Sorry Jim, I´m late but I will miss you and your wise wisdom, forever... Hugs...

I would like to extend my condolences to Joyce, Ferdinand, Kika, as well to Jim's many friends, previous coworkers, and his Army family! Jim was a loyal customer starting in 1996 as he was an avid NFL card collector. We shared many football stories and memories as well as attended several NFL Europe football games. We became friends and I relished in his wisdom about life as well as his love for sports and being a soldier. In 2004 Jim called me not knowing I was visiting my family in Houston to invite me to the Super Bowl being held in Houston. He asked me to verify the tickets and I did. I made new friends that he brought with him and we had an awesom time thanks to Jim's generosity. When I closed my business down in 2008 Jim then offered my a job on certain conditions - I met them and he kept his word with a job. When I asked where he replied Afghanistan. I replied Jim I thought we were friends? We both laughed. Jim will be missed as every year we spoke come Aug./Sept. for football season as well as holidays and birthdays! Respect and love always Raider Nation - RIP Jim

I was stationed with Jim in the Army in Hawaii in the early 1980´s and remained friends throughout life. You couldn´t ask for a better friend. I will miss him dearly. RIP Jim...

"Jim was a friend from high school. We reconnected through social media a few years ago...and shared many phone and text conversations that were always interesting, uplifting and informative. Jim was a kind, humble and honorable man, a true American, and a Patriot. I am so saddened to hear of his passing...I´ll miss his words of wisdom. May God be with you, My Friend...until we meet again!"
