I knew Jim from OVP for many years. Today, Sat I was coming up to the pool to see how his week was. I was told he had passed. I was in shock. I just saw him last Sunday at OVP. I will miss him and his humor and how he spoke his mind.

I am a neighbor of Jim's at Brittany Springs Apts. We used to chat when passing each other on our walks. Unfortunately, I was not walking the day he passed. I am so sorry for your loss. He spoke often of his grandchildren. I am not feeling well today and cannot attend the funeral. My prayers are with all of you.
