Jim was a class mate of mine since our Central Elementary School days. I think we probably had the same teachers all through grade school!  I didn't know him well, but he was always gentle and kind and good-natured. I'm sure he was a blessing to everyone who knew him, all his life.  Rest in Peace, Jim.

Jim and I played a lot of baseball together from Little League through our CLCHS days.  Always a great guy and a kind and gentle soul. We will miss you Jim. See you on the other side.
