I remember going to Doolen Jr. High back in 1967, I believe he lived right next door to the school. I used to over to his house on occasion to play with his remote controlled cars. When we owned our Costume Shop on Campbell years later,he would come in and rent Costumes for various events. That was a long time ago , God Bless your family.

My wife and I were saddened to hear of Jim's passing. Our heartfelt sympathies and condolences to Cynthia, Andrea, Adam, the Grands and friends.

I've been privileged to know Jim for more than 30 years. We´ve attended the same church, we've worked together on a Promise Keepers event, and I'd run into him and Cynthia at Rincon football games back in the day. Jim was a funny, outgoing, jovial, and gregarious man who always made you feel good! He will be missed by all who knew him. Rest in peace my friend and brother in Christ.

Stuart was an absolutely wonderful person and friend - those of us that grew up knowing him won't ever forget all the fun we had together. He was always cheerful and ready to crack a joke! His faith, enthusiasm and love of family was obvious to everyone he met. Cynthia, Andrea, Adam and all your families, please know our love and prayers are with you. Stuart, thank you for bringing so much joy to our lives. Martha

I will always remember Jim´s laugh. He loved to laugh. He drew people to himself by his smile and overwhelming jovial personality that made you feel good to just be around him. He loved sports especially ASU sports. We constantly bantered with him about his ASU fandom being Wildcats fans. It was all in good fun. Life was a joy to him and he shared that joy with others freely. I will his joy, his smile and those crazy hats he wore. I can imagine Jim playing his trombone in heaven and enjoying every minute of it.
