Dear Shereen, Marnie and Jamie, We were so saddened to hear of the passing of Jim. What a great guy he was. So kind and loving to all. I will always remember his jokes and his hearty laugh. He made everyone around feel so comfortable. We loved being around him. We are sure you will treasure the wonderful memories you have of him. Our hearts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time.

Dear Shereen, I was so surprised when Carol Ann called and told me of Jim's passing. I remember the Bentleys telling us what a wonderful builder he was and so honest. Those good memories will sustain you through the difficult times. You are being remembered in our thoughts and prayers.
