Theresa, I am so very sorry for your loss! My heart is tearing for you and your family. Jim was funny, cheerful and always saw the good in every situation. He truly loved his family and I saw that many times when he had the shop and I would deliver and see him, you and grandchildren there. Know that many people are thinking of you all and may God lift you up.
