It's been 48 years since Jim and I worked the counter and bar at T&C Lanes, but I still think of him and the fun we had.
Our friendship lasted through Fritz' Paradice and into Jim's Pest Control days.
He is truly missed, but not forgotten. Hope the family are doing well.

Jim was a friend and co-worker of mine when we worked at Town & Country Lanes, at both the bar and control desk. He was always great to work with and be around. I will remember all of the times we sat, tipping a few at Fritz' Paradise. I, of course met some of the kids and knew the older ones and their mother better than the young ones. I offer my condolences. I hope your memories of your dad, and his unique sense of humor, will stay with you through these tough times.
