Jim and his family were our next door neighbors growing up. We loved them all.

So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I remember Jim, Tom and Trudy, as well as their parents. Jim was the same age as my brother Bob and i believe Tom was my age, or close to it. Our family lived in Bald Hill till Oct., 1957, and we all went to school in Girard. I'm sure Jim will be missed.
