When I think of Jim I always smile. The fun we all had with him and Alice. He was an honorary member of 4th floor Sorin at Hamline. Now he is making the angels laugh. God Bless You, Jim.##imported-begin##Brenda Hamlin Kelley##imported-end##
Jim was my brother and mentor. Being the "younger" brother, Jim never hesitated to give me advice that always worked. He has left behind a "great" legacy. I can only hope for one as good!##imported-begin##Rick Kuklok##imported-end##
Jim is my supervisor. Jim is a person I have to say "a really good man" with all the true meaning. Working or being with Jim, everybody feels life is more beautiful. Alice is a great wife who has showed her wonderful love and care for Jim. We will miss Jim a lot.##imported-begin##Hai Hoang##imported-end##
I have so many memories where both Alice and Jim touched my life, beginning as a freshman at Hamline University. I think Tom Eberhart captured Jim so well. I am glad he is at peace. I pray for you Alice and your family. I know family always has meant so much to both of you. Your many friends from Minnesota are here for you and I hope you will take some time to heal yourself.##imported-begin##Diane Westover##imported-end##
I am very sad, sad for Jim's family for their loss and sad for myself for the missed opportunities to spend time with Jim in the future. I always admired and respected Jim and loved him like a brother. He had a great sense of humor and high ethical standards. I will miss his smile, his laugh, his giggle. Jim touched many lives and he certainly touched mine.##imported-begin##Sandi Lieder##imported-end##
Jim always had a zest for the experiences and people in his life like few others I've known. This was very apparent to me when he was back in Minnesota this past summer reconnecting with those experiences and people who influenced his early life. A person who lives life as large as Jim did, leaves a huge void for those closest to him. I fervently hope that Alice and family find peace and comfort in knowing that the pain and discomfort Jim struggled with are gone as well.##imported-begin##Tom Eberhart##imported-end##
