I was one of Jims primary caregivers at Landis homes, from day one we clicked, we always had something to talk about! Jim was always so caring. In June of 2020 when I took maternity leave and had my son, I was told he would ask my coworkers how I was doing and if I had a healthy baby! When I came back to work there wasn’t a day that went by that he didn’t ask about my son and ask if he was healthy or ask if I was doing ok! Also I’ll never forget the stack of cards and papers he was always writing to people, he was always writing something for some one, I’ll forever cherish the cards I received, they always put a smile on my face! He truly was a good man with a big heart! Jim, I know your in a better place now with no more pain, you will forever be in our hearts!

Words can’t even describe how I feel about Jim’s passing. I was Jim’s primary caregiver at Landis Homes.  I use to tell Jim him and I were like “Peas and Carrots” we clicked ever since I ment him . Jim and I had alot of talks and he would always tell me ” You understand me better than most people.” I always told Jim he was a Grandpa to me and he would always say ” Are you my sister?” haha. I am going to deeply miss Jim. I have been in the nursing field for 10 years and never had a connection with a patient/ resident like I had with my Grandpa. As I would always tell him.. It’s never goodbye, it’s always see ya later. See you again my friend love you.

I was saddened to learn that Jim had passed.  I’ve known him for many years and found his stubborness and sly humor endearing.  People were important to Jim, though at times he didn’t quite know what to do with the emotions brought on from caring about them.  I known that Jim has now found the peace that evaded him in life and I thank God for the opportunity to have known him.

Jim was one of the nicest people I ever worked with. We shared many laughs, but also had serious conversations about how to manage life. He was open to most suggestions, although sometimes it took some coaxing. Although I stopped working with Jim in 2012, I thought of him often. My condolences to his children and the Brenneman family. He spoke of them every time we met. Please know that Jim was a dear man that will be missed.

I am deeply saddened that Jimmy Jim Jim is no longer with us! I had taken care of him in healthcare at Landis Homes. We had many wonderful conversations and shared so many laughs together! I wished I could spend all day with him absolutely enjoying his company. Sundays was designated as the Happy Day and I would make sure he put on his flourescent yellow shirt and I would wear my butterfly top, cause he loved butterflies. Well Jimmy Jim Jim it breaks my heart that you are no longer with us but I know you have your Happy Shirt on making everyone smile…and now everyday is a Happy Day for you with our Lord!! 
Love you My Friend,

Jim was a good man that I will miss dearly.  He filled many days with laughs and at times discussions that were serious. What I will remember most was the love he had for his children.  We didn’t always see eye to eye but shared many adventures. Praying he has found comfort and peace.  My deepest and heartfelt sympathies to his family and dear friends Paul and Janice and their children.
