My thoughts and prayers are with you all. You may not know me but I have known Jim for many years. We met and became friends from our common interest in Bass Fishing and over the past several years have set up beside each other at the Fisherman's Swap Meet. The news of Jim's passing was a shock and he will be missed but remembered as a good friend. God Bless!
