Just returned from Jim’s memorial service. I wish I would have spoken when the pastor asked if anyone had a memory they wanted to share. I would have simply said “If Jim called you his friend, then you know you had a good friend who you could always count on.” My condolences to his entire family – and to J.J., may God bless. Rest in peace Jim. Brian Frantz
