Jim and I have been friends for a long time. He will be missed.Candi Palmer Hall
I had the privilege of singing side-by-side with Jim and praise team for several years. We want to sing a duet together, which was lots of fun. He was a great man of God and had a great sense of humor. You will be missed Jim. You touched a lot of lives.
We are heartbroken to hear about Jim's sudden passing. Please accept our sincerest condolences. Jim was such a bright presence on the sidelines, always with that big, warm smile and his sassy cheers. His support and enthusiasm for the kids, especially Erin never went unnoticed. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers in this incredibly difficult time. With heartfelt sympathies, The Nelsons (Jordyn, Lakeshore FC)
