My sincere and deepest sympathies to you all. Sorry to hear of Jim's passing.
Growing up we knew him as Ernie - as he drove the fastest milk cart in the west!

Sorry we can't be with you at this time of bereavement but be assured we are constantly thinking of you all and praying for you. I'm so glad I got to hold his hand four weeks ago and could sit with family as we chatted. Uncle Jim was a 'large' character in my narrative from birth and over 70 years. Tall, raucous sense of humour, big hands that always made you feel safe when he held yours and strong, warm hugs. He's going to me missed, that's for sure. Love to all. Sheryl (and Uncle Jack.)
