Dear Joyce and Family, We are so sorry to hear that Jim passed from this life to his life in Glory. He now knows the "secret" of what happens to all of us. We miss Jim.
Marge and Dan Kienitz

Jim's passing is so sad.  He was such a pleasure to work with years ago.  He was a compassionate person, and held values reflective of the good person he was.  He always knew how to bring a smile to your face and make one laugh.  Few have that ability.  May God comfort Joyce, his family, and friends in the days ahead.

As a little girl, you were there as I learned to ride my bike. Wind in my hair, I was a little bit scared, but you were there running beside me and I said let go daddy I can do it, I will be ok you can let go.  

As I grew into a women, every-time I fell in life and you helped me up, every time I was a little bit scared you were there and held me through all of the scary times until I could do it on my own.

My heart is breaking and you are gone, it is a little bit scary and I have to say I wish you wouldn't let go as I am  not sure your little girl is ready to do this on her own. Without your hand to hold, your strength to protect me, your love to comfort me...so not ready to let go.  I love you Daddy Sissy

I love you pap paw and will miss you dearly.

At five years old the sun shining in my face and the sidewalk beneath my bike..he was running right beside me hand firmly on the seat as I breathed deeply and said you can let go now daddy, you can let go.  I think I am ready..it's a little bit scary, but I want you to know, I will be OK now daddy you can let go.  As the preacher asked who gives this women and my eyes filled up will tears...I whispered you can let go now daddy, you can let go...I will be ok now daddy you can let go.  It was killing me to see the strongest man I have even known, wasting away to nothing...and now he has gone.  My heart is now breaking, though even now it must be said...you can let go now daddy, you can let go..your little girl may not be ready, but I will try to do it on my own..it is a little bit scary, but I want you to know I will be alright soon daddy..you can let go.  forever an always.. I love you daddy...sissy

Mr.Harris was a long time neighbor, he was always helpful and was there if you needed any thing My prayers go out to Mrs. Harris and all of the family

I love you Brother and will miss you dearly.  I can remember when I was little being so afraid of you because you were so tall and had a deep voice and I will never forget the necklace and pajama set you sent me from Japan.  I still have the necklace. Rest in peace with the Lord and our family. We will be together again...

One's father is the man one shares a blood line with, but one's Dad is the man who holds his respect, his devotion and his love. I love you Dad and though I will miss you terribly, I will remember your thunderous laugh. I can still remember the house shaking every time you laughed at Archie Bunker... those were the days!

We love you uncle Edgar and will miss you .I know that you are in heaven and you are at peace ,and you are with our Lord and family .we will all meet again one day.

Dear One you will be sorely missed. You are held close to our Hearts,we Love you, Your Family
