I had the pleasure of working with Jimmy at Central Grocers for about 3 years. As one of the few women working there, Jim always treated us with kindness and respect. He had a quick sense of humor and made us smile often. There is a special place in my heart for him. The Paterob family will be in our praeyrs.

Dear Freida, Jim, and Kristi,

Chris and I were so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember meeting Jim and noticing how good he was to little Jenna. I'm sure he is watching over her now.

To Frieda and the Paterob family,

I was shocked and saddened to hear of the loss of Jim, mostly known to me as "Tats"from our high school days. He made alot of people laugh, and no doubt was a loving and fun husband, dad, son, brother, and a grandpa!I'm sure he will be missed terribly. My deepest sympathy to all of you. My thoughts and prayers are wth you.

Dear Jim,

I will always make sure that Jenna knows what a wonderful "Papa" you were to her. May you watch over Jenna throughout her life and keep her safe. Marcy July 31. 2002
