I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Jim. Nick and I will take good care of Dee Dee for him. We know how much he loved her, and are thankful that he allowed us to be her new owners.
There are just no words to tell you how sorry we are. We loved that “kid”. We. did not know he was ill and it breaks out hearts. Glen Beverly and John please know we are thinking of you and you are in our prayers. David and Barbara Bar
Glen, Beverly & John , you are in our thoughts and prayers. I remember you at ECUMC. Saying prayers for you.
Will miss you uncle jim. Until we meet again. Love you so much.
I felt compelled to send a message to your family. It grieves me to see this loss as we have known little Jimmie since he was born. Just one thing I can say is that now he lives without any hurt and to me it is a graduation to the highest class ever! I still can say that you Beverly, are one special to me. You were the one who saw something was wrong with me at work. This was most likely what kept me from an even worse outcome. But enough of that. May our God and Father keep His healing hands upon your entire family. Your friend in Christ, Terry O. Foley

My condolences to all those affected by the passing of Jim. He was one of a kind. The only person I ever knew that as soon as you came in contact with him you immediately felt his love and friendship; and it was genuine. 😢

I first met Jimmy when we attended bible school at ECUMC. I enjoyed his upbeat personality and his enduring smile. We both enjoyed going to Columbus East and rooting for our teams. I really enjoyed bumping into Jimmy in town and catching up recently. I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. He was a genuinely good person and will be missed!
