I´m so very sorry to hear about Jim´s passing. He was a very kind and good man. He was my first boss in the real estate world that I knew nothing about. I was deeply saddened to hear of his death. Rest In Peace Jim.

I taught Jim´s wonderful daughters at Fullerton Magnet School. Whenever I would see Jim at Champions Run we would talk about his girls Joslyn and Marne. He was very proud of them and was such a kind man. He always had time to stop and say hello. My sincere condolences to Molly and the entire Maenner family.

I can count on one hand the people I have met who have treated people with abundant love and kindness, no matter who they were, no matter their station in life, no matter the number of coins in their pockets. Jim Maenner was one of these rare people - who treated everyone the same. Grateful for your example, Jim. My love to you, Molly!

I was very sorry to see James notice. I went through treatment with Jim at Immanuel. We would run into each other at various events and talk about how grateful we were for our recovery. He is pouring coffee at the Big meeting:)) My condolences to the family.

Elaine and I offer our love and condolences to the Molly, Marne, Joslyn and the rest of the Maenner family. Jim was a good man who we loved and respected.
