Jim was an avid golfer and is swinging away in heaven. He was a loving, loyal husband, father, and grandfather who was the king of one-liners and was a captivating story teller. He will be dearly missed by all.
A private service for Jim has already been held.
In honor of Jim E G and in lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the family to offset funeral expenses.
The family welcomes memories and messages in their guest book online at www.cookcares.com.
