  1. Jim was a member of our church and a great friend. He will be missed by all. Our sincere sympathy to his family. Jim was a fine man and, as the pastor said on Sunday, “His faith has now become sight”

  2. Jim was such a sweet friend of ours that we dearly loved. He was such an inspiration, full of laughter, and stories. Most of all, he loved the Lord and he will be sadly missed but we know we will see him again. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

  3. Jim was a bright light in this dark world and he shone brightest when he was talking about Jesus. Jim’s amazing smile was as constant as the sunrise and it was an honor and pleasure to know him for these last three years. God has blessed all of us indeed with Jim!

    THE NEIGHBORHOOD. HE TAUGHT ME HOW TO PLAY CHESS WHEN I WAS 15 YEARS OLD. BEEN THERE FOR MY FAMILY THROUGH THE YEARS ESPECIALLY WHEN MY DAD PASSED IN 2003.

  7. I am so sorry to hear of Jim’s passing. I have so many memories of us as we made our way through life in Fairview Community, Fairview School and then Reynolds. Though life left us in different geographical locations, I thought of Jim so many times over the years. The couple of times I got to talk and reminisce with him at Reynolds reunions are priceless and will always be a part of my pleasant memories. Go in peace, good friend.
