Known by his family and friends as "Jim" and by his beloved granddaughter as "Pa", he is loved and admired unmeasurably and endlessly. He lived his life here as a man of great strength through his faith in Christ. By Christian example, he endeavored to exemplify the greatest qualities of love, compassion, kindness, generosity, forgiveness and understanding. He will be greatly missed until we're together again. We love you Dad.
