Before Jim was Papa Jim he was Dad. 
When I was young, I remember being in the Indian guides with my brother and Dad. The Indian guides motto was Father and Son forever. I remember my Dad teaching me how to use a CB radio and I remember Dad added a load speaker to his car. I remember my dad having a pool installed in our Hamilton Park home – for us, not for him. I remember Dad coaching Jamey and I in baseball and later coaching with me as my boys started in Royal Palm. I remember Dad being the hardest working man I've known. Dad loved his family and friends. Most of all he loved his wife of 55 years. Mom, I'm so proud of you and Dad. 
I wonder if dad can see the joy he has brought to so many. Yes, I think he can.

I am sorry for your loss, Bunny.  Jim was a great guy and a good neighbor to my mother.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I worked with Jim for a long time at ATT in West Palm Beach. I always considered him a friend. I am so sorry to hear of his passing.

Love and Prayers From John and Lynne Rine III

So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. We always loved going over to Jim & Bunny's. He will be missed by his friends and great family.

Condolences to all who knew and loved Jim.

My heart goes out to Bunny and all the family.  Jim was a good and kind man.  He will be missed.  My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Papajim was my dads dad. every time i went to twomoms house I would always say IM HOME!!!! I'm going to miss that because I said that for him. I loved riding in his wheel chair but I would have to sneak. When he found out he would go for a ride with me. Even though he yelled at me I loved him. He was the only grandpa I knew and I miss him. I'm sending you hugs and kisses to heaven. I love you papajim!

We will miss you so much Jim. You were our rock and you taught us all so much, but God needs you now, so you rest and know that your family loves you. Xo

Thinking of your lovely wife and family at this very sad time you will live on forever in their thoughts and hearts. Avi and Cheryl Kandel
