So sorry to hear about Jim’s passing. He was truly loved and respected by all of us. Enjoyed working with him for a number of years. We will keep all of you in our prayers! May God Bless,
I knew Jim for 23 years and he and his wife Jeanette were good friends and truly good friends are hard to come by. We shared some good times. Jim was small in stature but had a big heart. He could be cantankerous and stubborn but we all are in our own way. If I needed a fox hole buddy I’d choose Jim (Gunny). Semper Fi my friend.
