Evelyn and Cook family, I was so sorry when I read about Jimmy in the paper. Jimmy was a good friend of mine in school. I got to see him at our last reunion, I gave him a ride to your house after the parade. Jimmy was a fine man and will be missed.

Words are inadequate to express my sadness for the family of such a wonderful person who cared for everyone he knew. I had the privilege of working with Jim in Russellville through Adult Basic Ed. He the kindest person who made my work much more enjoyable. My prayers are with his family whom he loved dearly.4

"We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." II Corinthians 5:8

May our Father comfort you at this time! I worked with Jim for 20 years. Jim was a kind man, always willing to help people; and with a beautiful smile. Jim loved to dance, he was my dance partner at SETA Conferences. SETA won't be the same without my dance partner. He is present with the Lord....Dance Jim!

To Jim's family and friends... You don't know us, but we wanted to express our deepest sympathies to you. We were college kids who worked at Williams Cleaners years ago, and Jim was a regular who stopped by to drop off dress pants 1-2 times per week. He was always very nice and friendly, and he was one of our favorite customers. We don't remember everyone that we served during our years working there, but we will always remember Jim for his kindness. We are thinking of and praying for you.
