Jim was a neighbor of ours for a while, and we always had fun when he was around. We went fishing a lot, he helped me build a garage for an old car I had. He was sure
a good carpenter, I learned a lot on the right way to build things. Any time we had something going he was always ready to go. He will be missed

I loved that man. We all did at Helping Hands. He was a true gentleman and a great help to us over the years. He graciously gave me some of his wooden articles and I will cherish them forever. He was so sweet and kind and funny. It is a joy to have known him and he will be missed greatly. Rest in peace Jim. Mary Gave.
Red Beattie was a friend of my Dad. In the past year he shared stories of their "gang" back in the day. He was a fine gentleman. May God rest his soul. Margie Schreiner Smith
