Jimmy, very sorry to hear of your loss!  Tracey and I send our deepest condolences!

Neva, Jimmy and Judy, There are so many memories from long ago on Grape Street. Those were the days when all the parents hung around outside and visited while the kids played kickball, red rover and "army." While we didn't keep in touch much over the years, I think of you all and cherish those memories. RIP Jim

Gentleman Jim!
Jim, Neva and Jimmy came into the James family in the early 1970's and has been part of the family ever since.  You knew when Jim arrived by his infectious laugh. He was followed by Neva and Jimmy. A few years later, Judy was born and then they were a family of four.  Jim brought fun and laughter along with the Holy Spirit. He could always remember and tell a good joke and nail the punch line. This was a time when the kids played outside while the parents partied inside. Jim and Neva demonstrated their service to God. Both were very active in the church as you would find one or both of them at most events at St. Francis de Sales. It may have been Neva in the church kitchen or Jim in the country store at the Bazaar, but if you followed the laughter, you would find Jim and Neva. 
I am not sure who got them to join St. Francis de Sales, but I am sure Joe-Bill and Quentina Brininstool or mom and dad had something to do with it. Jim and Neva soon moved from Robindell to Sharpstown because of the long drive and traffic. If the phone rang back then, it was either mom, Neva or Quintana calling to talk over coffee. In the evenings it was retro cocktail hour. Jim would look at his watch and, pull out bowls of nuts and announce it was happy hour. I think this helped to evolve the SFdS building II, room 19 into Club 19 sponsored by the SFdS Men's Club. It wasn't about the drinks but disconnecting from work and visiting with friends. 
The memories of our families growing up at St. Francis de Sales, will forever replay like 8mm film, full of fond memories of the Holzhausers, Brininstools and James.  Rest in Peace Jim and stand watch over Neva, Jimmy, Linda, Jenna, Judy and John.  May Christ heal all wounds and celebrate the life of Jim Holzhauser because at 5:00 somewhere in heaven it is happy hour and Jim has a bowl of nuts out!!

To Neva, Jimmy, and Judy,  Our condolences on the passing of your husband and father Jim.  We have many fond memories from when we were neighbors on Grape Road, especially lots of baseball and tree climbing!  Our prayers are with you.
