At age 20, I met Jim as an employee of Commercial Credit. God placed me at that place because He knew I needed encouragement and Christian influence. Mr. Sisk provided all of that for me. He made a difference in my life. The entire family are in my prayers. May God comfort you in this difficult time.
Dear Wayne & James:
We send our sympathy to you and your families. While I’ve never met your Dad, his legacy includes two fine sons.
Best Wishes,
