I am Moria Christians gran-daughter. Jimmy Apple and my grandfather were really great friends in California around the 60s (he has a hard time remembering when). we just found out that Jimmy has passed . I have grown up hearing stories of Jimmy Apple for 33 years! My papa has told me stories and adventures of riding motor cycles and tearing it up on the beach! A couple months ago my papa Chris was trying to reach out and Jimmy's phone was unreachable. He has had multiple days of being upset because he couldn't get a hold of him., and I finally looked him up. Its a very sad day for Chris and he says to his cherished and most remembered friend...
"I will see you again old friend and we will go for a ride"


Missing you I thought I'd give you a call after the last football game .  I know you watch all the time. Wish life was perfect , can't call anymore, I know you wouldn't want me to be sad, but I am, working on keeping my chin up , thank you my wonderful friend in life

My dear friend, 
I will miss you greatly.  You are and was a very unique individual that i had the honor to have met 35 years ago.  We had some good times and I will miss you very much.  You were very important in my life and I will treasure the time we had to be friends.  Rest in Peace with your love Anita.

Love,
Theresia Kennedy

The first time I met Jim I felt like I'd known him forever.  He made me, Tony, and the kids feel like family from that moment on.  He gave great advice, told memorable stories, and made us laugh often.  It was a true privilege to have known him and to call him a friend.  He will be truly missed.  We love you Jim.  

Sir , I wanted to thank you for the short time I got the pleasure of knowing you ... I still remember the day I pulled into your driveway and thought man this guy is gonna be neat ! Although I was there to solve your plumbing issue , that seemed like just a formality.  You showed me around your shop and I was in awe of it all ! You were the first confirmation to me and our company that we might have a real shot at this thing ! I thank you for every chance I've gotten to come over and bug you just a bit and maybe fix a problem or two along the way ... Thank you for truly being a friend to me and one day I'll see you again and finally be able to shake that right hand of yours . You will be missed sincerely by this man and it was an absolute honor and privilege to know you Jim ! 
Sincerely,  Christopher Small-Patriot Plumbing Service 

Jim you will be missed my brother. I know you are hand to hand with your lovely bride. My the love of our Lord receive you in his loving arms.

Jim, Rest in Peace good friend, You were always there with your wisdom and well thought out words.  You will be missed.

Here's a Bible passage I'd like to share with you...
“For what my Father wants is that all who see the Son and believe in him should have eternal life. And I will raise them to life on the last day.””
‭‭John‬ ‭6:40‬ ‭GNT
In the short time I got to know James , I loved his sense  of humor. Wenn I was in the Hospital for his surgery, he came  back in his room and wanted a kiss from the nurse , that was so sweet.  He reminded me a lot of my dad , that is something my dad would have done and that made my heart even heavier. Rest In Peace James and enjoy heaven God loves you ❤️ One day we meet again ❤️
