We are deeply sorry for your loss. Jim was a great man! My mama (Joanie Howlett) loved Jim like a brother. She told us stories of the great times and them growing up together. She would take us to visit Jim and Laura also, good memories and lots of laughs.I will always remember Jim and his love for Harley's...always seeing him riding around town. My family's prayers are with his girls, Laura, and family. We pray God gives you strength through this terribly sad time. I know how hard it is to lose a parent suddenly. There are no words or anything that can take the pain away, just know Jim loved you...especially his beautiful girls and grandbabies. I saw pictures on fb all the time of them...the greatest loves in his life! Carry the beautiful memories in your heart and to his girls...he is always with you. Embrace that!
