Dear Luella & Zoe, John and I were very surprised to hear of Jim's passing. You have our deepest sympthathy. We remember him walking your little dog & more recent we enjoyed it when Jim and Zoe would stop by our house and take time to visit awhile. He was never in a hurry. Jim was always watchful of our neighborhood and cared very much for our community. Jim was a good neighbor. I know you'll hear this from a lot of folks but if there's anything we can do to help you in the coming months, don't hesitage to call. We can run errands or babysit.

Although I didn't know Jim very well, I will always remember the gentleman who waived driving by my house and say something funny about the "social committee." Most of all, I will remember him for the fabulous Halloween costumes he created for Zoe. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. You are in my heart and prayers.

Dear Luella & Zoe, Jim will be greatly missed by our family; he was a great friend and neighbor. He always had something to teach the young and old about nature, a rarity these days. Jim will always be with us in our hearts.

Dear Luella & Zoe, We are very sad about Jim's passing. What a great friend and neighbor, he will truely be missed by many people. It is hard to believe that we will never hear his voice again. We so much enjoyed his train garden and Zoe's special Halloween costumes. He had such a great imagination, personality and sense of humor. We will do everything possible to help you out.
