  • I remember, to this day as if it were yesterday when I was about 7 or 8 years old and visiting my aunt (Jim's Mum), Jim and his buddy were about to go golfing. Jim insisted I come along with them.I will never forget how excited I was to tag along with my older cousin to the course. It would have been easy for Jim to leave without me, but that's not who Jim was. It was a memory of Jim I have and will always cherish. I wish we would have stayed in touch more often during the years. Thanks for not leaving me behind that day Jim. RIP rik - Posted by: Rik Skelton (cousin) on: Feb 16, 2023
