Jim was one of my first neighbors in Crystal Lake and was a wonderful man. He would feed my dog when he came by.
I loved Kincaid Hardware and all of the people that worked there.
May the Lord provide peace and comfort to the entire family.

I loved going to the Hardware store with my parents, Patty and Dee Kelley. I still remember the smell...He was always so kind to a curious little girl! Prayers are with your family. Paige Kelley Weeks

Jim was truly a man of kindness. He always was so kind to help and figure out what was needed for my projects. The entire family blessed me and for that I am humbled. Christie Kay has been a wonderful friend. May peace be with you and the family.

What a nice man!
Loved seeing him and Christie working at Kincaid’s Hardware store.
Our kids couldn’t wait to get the little brown bag with a piece
of candy in it. And no matter of what you needed they had it!
Happy memories.
