TO MY DEAR BROTHER Sometimes things just aren't right, this is one of them. But it's OK you loved and were loved by so many and isn't that what it's all about, not things. Don't get me wrong we did love our things. But we do take our love and memories, which are priceless. This is not the end, just the start of better things to come. But I will miss 7am calls, Engines, Trucks, The Old Days, Racing on "E" St. in San Berdo and a lot things we just don't talk about. So for now it's not goodbye, It's I'll see you when I get there! Thank You for being You, Big Brother !! All my Love Always.
I pushed Erin in the pool and it scratched Erin’s back pretty bad. Jim jumped into dad mode and got very upset with me, I was scared but realized in that moment what a father figure should be like - protective, loving, silly, and in Jim’s case outspoken. Little things every day remind me of Jim. I never got to tell him but I kept all his voicemails to have to remember him.
I will so miss uncle Jim. He was truly one of a kind and brought so much love and light to our extended family. I will cherish my many, many memories of him - from childhood to now - and will carry them with me. My sincere condolences to Carolyn, Erin, Eric and Amber.
I met Jim through FB as he is a brother of another friend of mine. I always found Jim to be insightful, funny and just an all around good guy. He will be sadly missed, this was so not expected. Fly high Jim, let the stress of the world slip from your shoulders.
