Grew up with Jimmy at St. Boniface. My dad Tiny Stevens, introduced me to the game and Jimmy gave me some pointers. Years later, had a tune up with Jimmy and he improved my game. R.I.P. Jimmy. Keep it in the short stuff. - Posted by: Douglas Stevens (friend/student) on: Jun 03, 2025

Jim shared a room at the nursing home with my husband. He was a gentle and kind man. He used to save the newspaper for me to take home to recycle. - Posted by: Nancy Lautermilch (Friend) on: Mar 01, 2025
