Such a kind and admirable man. In the simplest ways you helped fill a Fatherly void. Bless you and your Family!

Jim was a very spiritual man who inspired us to be better. His wife, Mary, is such a gracious and loving person who supported Jim in all he did. What a blessing it was to be in their home. Jim had a great sense of humor and was funny...how can any of us forget his happy smile? Families are forever. We know, as his friends, that we will see him again. We also know that the Savior greeted Jim with open arms and said, 'Well done, thou good and faithful servant"!

We are very happy to have known you, Jim. Even though it was destined to be not very long that we shared each other's company here in Barbados. We have many fond memories of our two families getting together and visiting and enjoying each other's company along with some delicious meals that you and Mary were willing and happy to provide even at a moment's notice We know you fought the good fight in more ways than one; for Heavenly Father, for your family, for your friends and relatives and your country (by extension for the world through your service). Rest comfortable, Jim, in the arms of our Saviour and we look forward to seeing you again one day and catching up with all those times that we missed in between. This is not "Adios" but Hasta La Vista" as the Spanish folk will say. Sue & Frank
