We're choosing to see the blessings in Jim's passing on April 4, 2017. His children can be proud of the way he earned his angel wings. Jim is at peace and in a better place. Please pray for his 3 children (ages 12, 14 & 15). Two of them witnessed it happen.

Unfortunately there is no life insurance. We are hoping to raise money to help fund their college educations.
