Now that Jim is safely in Heaven, maybe he can forgive me for dinging his Ford Woody when we towed it home from the coast.
Rest in peace my friend.......rest in peace!

I remember Jimmy back in the early 60 s, quiet and ran a few guys......many years passed until Adolph Bautista created a new relationship between us... Jimmy owns the old Bertoncci shop and was looking for racing the brothers were involved in, one of their drivers, Eli Vukovich.....my wife is Eli's daughter....Janet was able to help him with some of the pictures he had been searching....... Jimmy told me , this was a special time in his life.......RIP.

Knew Jim from McDonalds with the coffee crew. I knew Jim was a kind soul, loved his stray cats, and for me that said tons about this fine man. So happy Jim had south good friends to take care of him in his final days, thanks to all of them. I will not be able to attend Jim's funeral as I take care of my 92 yr old mom in Fresno, but will be thinking of him on his day. My best to Adolf I believe was the person stepping forward to take care of him, and feel free to contact me directly so I can thank you for being such a good person. John 474-0868

Dear loved ones I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your close friend. It reminds me of the account of Jesus and His close friend Lazarus. This account is found in the Bible book of John chapter 11 verses 11 through verses 45. In this account Jesus explains to his apostles that Death is like sleep. In John chapter 6 verse 40 states that it is Gods will that his Son has the power reserect the dead we just need to have faith that Jesus is capable of fulfilling his Fathers desire that all deserving ones should have everlasting life. Please be comforted in knowing that your friend has this future promise. For more information in regards to the reserection hope please refer to www.jw.org. All the best for all you dear ones, Fred and Rhoma

Jim was always a kindhearted person, enjoyed his jokes and conversation while working at Copeland lumber, where he came in just about every day.
