My prayers go out to you and your family Stephanie.

Grandpa/Dad, Words cannot express the LOVE I will always have for you. Your grandchildren and I miss you dearly. I still can't believe that you're gone. You'll forever be in our hearts, thoughts, and conversations. Thanks for the many "who wants to be a millionaire" challenges. I smile every time I think of those wonderful moments I got to share with you. May God continue to bless your spirit. Rest in Paradise until we see you again.

Hell of a man you were Uncle Jim.alot of great times.Tell the family we miss them and hope to be with them soon xoxoxo.

Jim, you will be missed greatly. Sadly we didn't see you often enough but knowing you and your family were here was a constant in our lives that will be missed so much. May your family find peace. We love you.

Glad to have met Mr. Strickland. He will definitely be missed by all who knew him.
