It is every educator's dream to have a true impact, and as a gifted math teacher, Jim made that a reality. With focused dedication on his students and his willingness to listen, both students and teacher were impacted for the better.

The guitar will gently weep for the passing of this beloved man, yet the chords he strummed will continue to echo in the hearts and souls of all those who truly loved him.

To ensure your generosity and support are acknowledged - and to help protect you from future solicitations - Jim’s Family has requested that memorial contributions be made through IN MEMORY OF to the

American Heart Association

The American Heart Association is the nation’s oldest and largest voluntary organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke. Founded by six cardiologists in 1924, the organization now includes more than 22.5 million volunteers, 156 local offices and over 3,000 employees. The organization funds innovative research, advocates for stronger public health policies, and provides critical tools and information to save and improve lives. The American Stroke Association was created as a division in 1997 to bring together the organization’s stroke-related activities.
