It's hard to believe that it's been 5 years since Jim died. One night Harry and I were talking and as is often the case, Jim's name came up. And Harry said, "Not a day goes by that I don't think about Jim."
He was a wonderful son, brother, husband, grandfather and friend. We all miss him - but are grateful for good memories.
I wish it was more popular to comment on blogs and not just Facebook. If you read this, share a memory of Jim!

I remember how silly he could be. Definitely have a vivid memory of him being Santa Claus!
Awwww I sure do miss him!!!
I can't begin to number the great experiences I had with Uncle Jim. But i will be forever grateful for his example of how to love life and see the humor in it!
I guess I forgot to include "uncle" in the list!
I see my dad in everything. The one thing I do miss about him is talking to him on the phone almost Everyday. He would call me when he had those long drives home, he probably did it so he could stay awake but it sure was nice to hear his voice and he always had great advice. Miss you dad!
One of my early memories of Uncle Jim was when I had chicken pox and I was staying with Jim and Trudy. I remember Uncle Jim putting calamine lotion on my pox for me.
I always loved spending time with Uncle Jim. He made me laugh. He was a great example to me.
That was not Phoebe above - it was Barbara.
