Papa taught me how to play pool and change a car headlight.
He didn’t talk much about his naval service, but when I wrote about it for a VFW contest in middle school he still showed up to the recitation.
I love you. 🥰 I miss you.

Best grandfather a boy could ask for! Hunting fishing riding quads and working hard when it was needed! I will miss your time we spent together pops you are missed and loved very much.
He was the best great grandpa ever. I had a lot of fun when we shot BB guns and I mis him very much. I wish I could see him 1 more time.
He was like a great grandpa to me. We had a lot of fun seeing and playing with us.
I wish I could have known him better, overtime I came over to his house to help him around the house he always put a smile on my face, and made me laugh. He always made me feel like I was his own grandson.
I miss him so so so much and I wish he was still here with us. I miss sitting in his little living room watching westerns or cartoons. He will always be my favorite always and forever, love you pops.
There are no words to express the sadness in our heavy hearts. Pops was truly one in a million, our cute grumpy little grizzly bear. I loved the grumpy way he said “yeah me too” when I said I love you Pops. I loved how he was present at every thing big and small in my life. I loved that he loved my baby girl, his little Dr. and how he tried to learn Spanish to talk to Alex. Love you Pops
Even though I did not really know him he was always be in my heart.
He was the Best Great Grandpa ever. He was super grumpy but it was funny and thats one of the things that made him special. It was super fun when we shot BB guns with uncle Cj and Papi and Xander and Melanie. I love him so does everyone else. I wish I could see and talk to him one more time. But at least I know that he is just sleeping and I will see him again in paradise.
So sorry for your loss. I remember Jim working the bingo at the VFW. What a nice and sweet man he was.
I didn’t know your parents very well, Lisa, but because of both of your parents, I have you as a friend. What a wonderful blessing that has been. You & your family have been in our prayers. May Jehovah keep you sustained during this difficult time. We look forward to you in May! Love you all!
This whole family is in my thoughts and prayers. Sending love to you all. I am so sorry for your loss. So many memories. I will never forget.
June so sorry for your loss.
