    We are very sorry for your loss. Jim was a true gentleman and someone who you appreciated as a human being. His family is his legacy as was his passion for the outdoors and being a good steward of the land. We will miss his laugh and personality anytime I was around Jim he brought a smile to my face. We all will miss him.
