Condolences to Lynne, Melissa and Kristin. Of course you know I sang Barbershop with Jim for many years. Also he was our insurance agent, too. I also taught the girls biology at DMHS. Jim was a great guy and a good friend when we all lived in Saginaw.

I was saddened to learn of Jim's passing. We were cousins and graduated from AHHS in '48. We moved out West - so lost tract of each other. ( I live in So. Bend, WA) Your family will be in my prayers.
p.s. - my husband was from Cheboygan.
