A favorite brother-in-law, Bridge partner, friend...so-long "Uncle Jim".  You were a super guy with a wonderful sense of humor.  I will miss you.

So long Uncle. I have so many memories of you and growing up as your favorite neice!  Drinking with extended pinky finger, eating everything with gravy, fingers up-no thumbs to find the special parking spot...too many to list.  You were a special Uncle and have left a mark on the world.  Say Hi to Dad for me!

A greater teacher than Jim Rock I never had.  I had him for English and Latin from 1960 to 1962.  He gave me the name "Bubbles," which lasted into high school.  He loved to tease me. Once, he had his 7th-grade softball team bend over real small, making it almost impossible for me to throw them a strike.  I loved him. I did not use "Is, are, was, were, seem, sudden, appear" in this message.
