wE MET JIM AND HIS FAMILY IN 1977, WHEN WE WERE BUILDING OUR HOME ACROSS THE STREET. They were such nice neighbors. It wasn't the same here when they moved to Florida. Well Jim, now you can join Estelle and Mike. May you rest in Peace.

Jim was such a wonderful neighbor - we moved next door to him in 1999 and shared many chats over the fence that separated our back yards. Our deepest sympathy to Joe and the rest of Jim and Estelle's family. With deepest sympathy - Mary Abell and Fred Moore
