    I will never forget him passing out flashlights at VBS from his wheelchair! It was obvious that he loved children and wanted to help them grow in The Lord. Pat, you have truly been an inspiration to watch. Your love and care for him was a testament of the true and deep love and commitment you two had for each other! Love you! Jodi

    It was my great pleasure to have Jim as my Kraftmaid rep. at Lowe’s for many years. He was always helpful, kind and caring about his business. I’m sure he was a great and loving man with his family. I am so glad to know Jim is with Jesus and I will be able to talk to him again and share much. In business he made my life better and I’m sure he did that in his personal life. Dear Lord thank you for Jim’s life here on earth and say hello to him in heaven. God’s blessings forever.

    Pat and family,

    I am so sorry. Jimmy was such a kind, gentle man and I will always remember him. Especially when I see fireworks – nothing can ever compare to his shows.
