So sorry to the family, co-workers, acquaintances for loss of a very humble man. Jim lived here in Aripeka, and you would not have known he was a very important in the World. He was just plain Jim to his Aripeka friends and neighbors. Will miss not having him in our community, he gave our funky village of Aripeka both character and class. Rest In Peace Jim, you will always be remembered for the great friend you were to all. Ann Rock
