Fair winds and calm seas Captain, rest easy Sir...🙏❤

A supportive step father that always wanted to make everyone laugh who was around him. Up for giving a helpful hand when needed. Always good for jokes and giving me relationship advice. Thank you for all the great memories. You will never be forgotten and will always be missed. 

I had the pleasure  to work  with Captain Jim
At NPR Harley-Davidson ...And love all his jokes ...Prayers for his family ...

Capt Jim,  Rest easy now you have all the time in the world to ride your Harleys. World lost a very kind man. At least very kind to me. Enjoyed working with you at team Gulf Coast. And always enjoyed finding you a new piece of chrome for your next Harley.  Thank you for your service and  friendship. Rest in peace. 
Condolences, to Eileen and family.

I will miss your smile and laughter. Fly high Captain.  You will be missed.  

Eileen,
I am deeply saddened to hear of Captain Jims passing. I enjoyed being able to work with him at NPR HD,  we always had great laughs and I enjoyed our sometimes long conversations.  He will be missed, and of course I am keeping you and your families in my heartfelt thoughts.

Eileen,
 Jim will be missed very much.  He treated me like his own daughter from day one, said whatever he wanted knowing he probably would irritate someone, always made people laugh, and liked to have a good time.  Loved his jokes.  Was there when I needed to vent.  He will be in our hearts forever. RIP Jim

Love,
Lynne 

Eileen,
We are so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. It was always so fabulous to see you two through the years. His jokes and sense of humor were unsurpassed. 

Jimmy, your older brother is sad to see you go. As kids, we both loved cars, boats, and wrestling. Unfortunately, we didn't always see eye to eye, and I'm sorry we didn't reconcile. I wish I had known you were ill! RIP Brother!

To my sister Eileen,  I’m very sorry for what you are going through and know how much you were looking forward to the years ahead with Jim.  Keep your head up and keep smiling cause that’s what Jim would want you to do.  May he Rest In Peace and his memory live forever in your heart. 

My 1st memory of Jim started off a little bumpy. I work at Hilltop cafe. Here I am walking through the restaurant arms full of food and here's this guy sitting at a dirty table he looks at me and says hey hon when you get time can you clear this table and I will have a water with extra lemon and a coffee.He must have seen the look on my face because when I walked back to clear the table he looked at me and asked do you have a sister and I said no why and he said cause you remind me of my wife with that look. We both started to laugh and ever since then I waited on him and Eileen. I always knew when he was there cause I could hear him and he would come look for me to give me a big bear hug. Jim was a very special person and we at Hilltop will miss him deeply especially me. Rest in peace my friend ❤ love always Tammy 

Eileen, 

I am so very sorry for your loss and my heart breaks for you.  My favorite memory of Jim is he introduced me to deep fried turkey! I remember thinking how can that possibly be any good... it’s supposed to be stuffed and roasted in the oven. Well, he did such an amazing job on those turkeys, I am now a huge fan.  I will keep you in my prayers. I love you.

Dear Eileen,
      We are so deeply sorry for your loss of Jim.  I'm sure you'll carry the memory of him forever in your heart.  Everywhere you turn, another memory of Jim will appear, whether it's at home or out on the road.  And Jim, thanks for all the fond memories.  You were so excited when you got your last trike.  May you rest in peace.

Love,
Debbie & Alex

Jim,

I love you and miss you.  You will always be in my heart.  Thank you for being next to me.  I want to memorize the sound of your voice and the dreams of your heart. Rest in peace.

                                                                      Love you always!
                                                                               Eileen
