All my sympathy to Jim's family.i was happy to have known Jim for many years being in the model car club and enjoyed traveling with him to Chicago for some model shows. My wife Teresa and I have to say I don't think we ever met a nicer man. He will be missed. Rest in peace Jim. Steve and Teresa Lovan

I live in his neighborhood and I often saw him when I was out walking. He always stopped whatever he was doing to chat for a few minutes. He always wore a smile and had kind words to say. He will be missed. Prayers for you and your family.
