I am deeply sorry for the loss of an amazing human being. Jim AKA Thatch in school I remember him hanging out with his friends long dark hair and that toothpick. I thought he was one of the coolest people in school. I was texting him on facebook checking on him through the years. I know he fought hard and just kept trying to hold on. Last year, I got him connected with one of his good friends Jeff and i never knew if they got together cause Jim was sick. But he was grateful to find him again. He even told me as Jeff did that growing up Jim was a part of the family. I am sad because Jeff passed last year out of nowhere. But now Jim gone. I know him my heart and spirit that he is with the Lord now.
RIP Jim THUMBS UP you have done well faithful servant.

This one is tough. I have known Jim since we were 6 years old. Even though we went to different schools we became friends. We reconnected in junior high and remained friends until graduation. He was a great person. Always positive and up for a laugh or two. People like him are rare and will be sorely missed.
