I went to school with Jim, and while we were never close, I remember him fondly. I watched the service online, and it sounds like he was a wonderful man. Thank you for sharing this service, and my sincere condolences. It sounds like he’ll be missed, but I’m sure he’s happily reunited with Carol and his former dogs. My best wishes to his sisters.
