You will truely be missed...Your different sense of humor, and "tit for tat come backs," were always entertaining. Oak Hill's Social Butterfly now has another agenda...to go be with your Loved Ones and Friends, who have gone before you, leaving a void in the hearts & minds of those who know and love you. My condolences to all your Friends and Family, and MAY YOU REST IN PEACE!

Aunt Dolly, Susan, Teresa, and Belinda; I can't express in words how sorry I am. Jim was not only my cousin, but he was my buddy. Although we're a long way from home, our hearts are with you all in this time of sorrow.

It hurts my heart so much to see another young man cut down in his prime. The one thing I'll always remember about Jim is he was always laughing. He was such a joy to be around. He was a gentleman, always treating me with respect when I was around him. On behalf of my son, Juney Thompson, and myself, we will miss him dearly. Go with the Angels, Jim. Rest in Peace.
