I have known Jim most of my life. He was my brother's friend, Charlie Tuna, in High School. I will miss his phone calls and e-mails greatly! I will never forget him. I was at the memorial service at Janina's and thought it was really wonderful to be remembered this way. What a guy! Really gonna miss you Chase!

I met Jim about ten years ago, when I went with his daughter "Toni" to Janina's on Milwaukee. Jim always was a fun flitatious man and I will miss him very much. Thank God his daughter is my best friend, so I will always feel near to him through her. She is very much like Jim in so many ways. My heart goes out to her and her family, husband Mike, son Michael, and daughter Shannon. God Bless you.

My sympathy to the Family of Jim, I was totally shocked to hear the News of his Passing. I have known Jim for many years, and was a little concerned when I hadn't heard from him via email. He never failed to pass along humorous jokes almost daily. He will be truly missed. RIP Jim, and God Bless. Ro.
