Hi, Jim. Can't believe that I (we) will not see you again on earth. Your desk at work keeps reminding me of you each day. I keep thinking that you will lumber around the corner, throwing your backpack onto your desk. But that's not to be. You will be missed dearly at work. Thanks so much for all the help you were to me. God bless you and your family. I'll be praying for your 2 kids and your parents. Thanks again for sharing your life with us at EB. God rest your soul!

Oh Jim. The shock I felt when I got the call. I thought no way. Then I realized it was true and you were gone. All the memories of our lives together came rushing to mind. From taking out mom and dads stone wall on your way home one night to being in our wedding to being the one we chose to raise our boys if anything happened to Bob and I. Waking up to find you asleep on our living room floor to seeing your face when you found out you were going to be a dad. Trip to NYC when Bobby hopped on the subway without us and you got the door opened and grabbed him. To calling Bob when you grandpa died, to watching step up and be a single dad doing the best you can. When you redeficated your life to the Lord and watched Bobby graduate. Your going to be missed so much but at least its not Goodbye because we will meet again. Love the Hauta family ❤

A beautiful soul, full of love and faith, ascended to heaven, away from us, but closer to God, leaving loneliness and sadness. With immense heartache, we say goodbye to Jim. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family in this difficult time.
