Dorena - I am so very sorry for your loss.  I was looking at the pictures here of your husband.  It sure looks like he loved his family very much!  I have no words except that I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.   I am only a few months older than him.  Life is too short.  Teri

A  DISH GARDEN WITH FRESH FLOWERS was ordered on August 1, 2017


First time I met Jim he came to help me off load a granite ship at night in Tampa FL cause Brooksville quarry was slow at the time.One of the first things Jim tells me is he hopes the offload goes well because his knees were hurting that night. Well it wasn't but 10 to 15 mins later the conveyors got overloaded. So guess what Jim and I had to shovel for I'd say 30min or so. even though Jim was in pain with his knees he stood there side by side shoveling  with me till we could get the system up and running again.. My deep condolence to Jim family I'm sorry for y'alls loss. (Act 16:31) 31 And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."

Our hearts are filled with sadness and tears but our memories are filled with smiles and laughter of the good times we shared.

We are deeply saddened to hear that Jim has past on. For those he leaves behind, be certain that you now have a guardian angel and will once again be reunited. Fort Myers Quarry

So sorry,praying for you Dorena and family.My heart goes out to everyone.If there is any thing I can do just ask.

I remember meeting Jim for the first time back in 1988 when Dorena was running the stock crew as assistant manager at Winn Dixie.  Us guys on the crew nicknamed him the hulkster.  Big dude, and as it turns out,  as nice as he was big. Awesome Christian man, big time Alabama fan, great guy. Bidwell family,  you're in our prayers.  Jim is home now.

I am so sorry for your loss.  My heart breaks for you and your family.  Jim was a great man and a had a beautiful heart.  He will be greatly missed.  Love and prayers being sent.

Jim was always a man whom I admired. His gentle way, his humor, wit and wise counsel were stellar.  No one had to tell you how good a man he was, he never needed to blow his own horn, he shined all on his own.  Prayers for you Dorena, Tim and April as well as the whole family.

Dorena and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my prayers and thoughts. I'm always here for you.
