Family of JimI worked with Jim on the Milwaukee Road and have many fond memories of our times in Union Station. Highland, IL US
Sara is Beverly's 9 l/2 yr old daughter….she wrote a card to Uncle Jim on Wed, 2/23/05 at school and this is what it said: Dear Uncle Jimmy: I am always going to miss you & love you forever and ever. Please inform me with everybody in Heaven that one day I will be up there too to see you. I always am going to miss you. Love: Sara Holguin…your great-niece Waskom, TX US
Uncle Jim was not only my mentor but also my friend and confidant. My fondest memory was at his home on Round Lake. We were all building a pier to park Dad's new boat. Jim walked out onto an unsecured board over-hanging the water; it flipped up hitting him in the rear and into the water. We all had a great laugh at his expense. Uncle JimÃ?â??ââ?¬â?¢s humor, practical jokes and million-dollar smile will truly be missed. Homer Glen, IL US
