Harriett and Nancy-Our sincere sympathy. We have such wonderful memories of Jim from growing up in Dover, to sports at DHS and more recently from our trips to FL to watch our Phillies and have dinners together. Whenever we think of Jim, we will smile as we think of all the fun times and funny things he would come up with!! Harriett, Jim was blessed to have met you over 30 years ago.

Harriet and Nancy, Jimmy's passing marks the physical loss of a significant piece of my High School treasure, though the great memories, laughter and fond classmate relationships live on through his many friends. May the words and prayers of Jimmy's classmates and friends help you through this difficult time. Ed Martin, DHS Class of '62.
