Jim was a good man. May God rest his Soul. May the fishing be great in Heaven.
Forrest Barnett - Brother-In-Law
Jim was a great guy and someone I truly respected. He was very witty and always had a great sense of humor. I remember the day I took Jim for a ride in his truck after one of his strokes while he was living in Chickasha. As I helped him get in the truck I accidently pulled his sweat pants down to his knees. Needless to say that is one moment that I will never forget and I am sure he didn't either. Maxine, he couldn't have made it this long without your support and love. You are a very special lady. I will keep you and the family in my prayers.
Garrin Bratcher - Friend
Jim was a very nice person. When i would call Maxine he would holler out Maxine it's your singing partner. Jim would always tease everyone at church. He enjoyed life may he rest peace he's with god now. A Friend Darlene

I met Jim in about 1976 when he came to work for the Farm Service Co-op. We became friends and spent time togather,working, fishing, deer hunting and going to fox hunts. I will always remember the good times we had togather. Jim was my friend. Maxine, you went beyond the call of duty taking care of Jim after his strokes. No one could ask for better care than you provided. May God Bless You.

Uncle James was a very good man. I remember him always being funny. Mother said he always played jokes on her when they were children. I bet she and Ma-mow are welcoming him with loving open arms in heaven right now. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Aunt Maxcine.
