Jim was sucha nice guy probably one of the nicest guys I've ever met! He will be greatly missed! You are all in my prayers!


When somebody dies, a cloud turns into an angel, and flies up to tell God to put another flower on a pillow.

A bird gives the message back to
the world, and sings a silent prayer that makes the rain cry. People disappear, but they never really go away.

The spirits up there put the sun to
bed, wake up grass, and spin the
earth in dizzy circles.

Sometimes you can see them dancing in a cloud during the day-time, when they're supposed to be sleeping.

They paint the rainbows and also the sunsets and make waves splash and tug at the tide.

They toss shooting stars and listen to wishes.

And when they sing windsongs, they whisper to us, don't miss me too much.

The view is nice and I'm doing just fine.

I knew Jim for many years. He was not only a good friend but like a brother. I still feel like I'm in a terrible nightmare. I wish i could wake up and it all be a dream.

My deepest sympathies to Jim's family, especially his mother, and all of his friends, he had many. I'll never forget the great times we had. It was such a blessing to have known him, he was a wonderful person and an even better friend. Rest in Peace, Jim. I'll see you on the other side.

I knew Jim back in High School, I used to stand around in the halls with him and a few others (Jake Stevens god rest his soul, Josh LeBlanc, and a few others) before homeroom every , morning. I didn't know him well but his death comes as a shock, and saddens me. This should never have happened to Jim, from what I remember he was a goofy, sincere guy who loved music and treasured his friends. He will surely be missed. My deepest condolences go out to his family and friends. He will not be forgotten.
