Jim was one in a million. A man of fun, energy, passion, vision and action. I deeply appreciated his dedication to God and his caring for people. His loss is just one more reason to hasten the second coming. Thoughts and prayers are with you Ainsley and the family with the loss of someone so special. Looking forward to that wonderful reunion. All my love
