We will remember him as a kind and gentle man. Always had a smile. Hugs to all who will miss him so much.
Love,
Lew & Mary Anne Richie
Jim was kind, humble, quiet, sweet in nature. His demeanour was always smiling. I liked Jim as a person and he loved and cared for his family deeply. Whenever I was in his presence, he reminded me of a very content, happy, smiling grandpa. He will be missed. I am praying and thinking for his whole family, especially his wife at this really sad time in their lives. Praying for peace and comfort. Take care

I do remember one fine day in Florida. Uncle Jim was driving us to the beach and whoops my shoe flew out the window. We told him about 10 miles later and the patience of a saint Uncle Jim went back to find them. I am sure he was a little disgruntled, but I never knew it. He laughed and told that story for as long as I knew him.
Jim was a great man who always seemed to have a smile on his face and would always partake in a good conversation. He always seemed to care and was truly genuine. Growing up only a few farm fields away and quick mini bike or motorcycle ride down Sharrow's lane it was a lot of fun being friends and growing up with the Westrick family. A lot of good times were had and I know "Mr Westrick" had to fix at least a few things we may have broke along the way having all that fun. I think he could fix almost anything. If Jimmy never admitted to it your fridge may have been a few beers short every now and then over the years when we would stay in the fort (Sorry if I am ratting you out Jimbo).
I know he will be missed and my families thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Westrick family.
Dan and Therese Thomas and Family.
