I'm so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was by far one of my dads (George Johnson) favorites. Prayers to you and your family Karen.

I will never forget James for the kindness he showed to my wife and I after a storm flooded our home several years ago. We were new neighbors and he helped us in our time of need. I will never forget him.
