So sorry to hear about Jim, he was a great man. The  the first time he came into our shop to have his car repaired he was more like a friend instead of a customer we will truly miss him.

I was so sorry to hear about my friend Jim's passing and he will be missed.  I'm thinking of his dear wife Juanita, and the new hole in her life.

Jim, who I called "JFK", was an easy-going man who didn't seem to age since when I first met him in 1976 at KBM Office Furniture in San Jose.  Jim was a unique character, someone who bore no one ill will and who was happy just getting along in life.  His friends enjoyed his colorful chatter, his smile and chuckles.  We shared interests in R&R music, football, cars, racing, and good beer, the sort of things that guys like.

Jim's life was immeasurably enriched when he met and married Juanita, and I thank her for what she gave to him.  

Rest easy, my friend.
