My sympathy on the death of Jim. He was my neighbor on Woodbridge, I babysat all of the children and we had so much fun sliding and skating in the neighborhood. The Dahlquist family was a very special family in our wonderful neighborhood. Love and hugs to Jim's wife and children and also to Jim's siblings. Jim would use my late brother's cabin with his clients and Craig would love it.

I am sure Jim left many memories for all - may you remember Jim.

Love to all.

Very sad to see Jim pass. He was my next door neighbor at the cabin. He was very patient and knowledgeable. He will be missed.

Best wishes to Lois and family.
