My memories of Jim are when we worked together as Knights of Columbus and curled in a few curling bonspiels. We always had a lot of fun as Jim was a great guy. Our thoughts and prayers are with Terry and family. We will miss him scooting by our house in his scooter and stopping for a few beer occasionally.
