    Jo Ann,
    I’m so sorry to hear about James. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. He was always smiling and was so nice each time I’d see him at a fish fry when I was in town.

    Lord Jesus Christ says there are many rooms in my father’s house.
    Please give Jim a room with a great view.

    A good man was lost with Jim’s passing. We had many a good conversation. He was smart and kind. He was never bashful about lending a hand when the need was there. He will be missed by the Edgerton community. Rest in peace my friend.
