Jim was an avid fisherman here @PALM VALLEY COUNTRY CLUB. It was my honor to bait his hooks, cast it out for him and share his excitement if he got "a bite". May he rest in peace always have a "fish on his line".

Jim was a loved, valued customer of mine, and I think of him often. Sorry to hear he has left us. He touched many lives.

Kind, considerate, and a dear man. Enjoyed our friendship at HPHS, he was a star in "We are no Angels," wonderful acting, he was fun, and must have been a wonderful husband, father and grandfather, sorry we didn't reconnect at some time. Always proud to have known this man, one of the best.
