Marion, I am deeply grieved that I did not keep in contact with you & Jim. Please forgive my thoughtlessness. Jim was a great encouragement to me. If we ever find the trail of our Biffle ancestors it will be mostly because of the dedication of Jim to the task. I will always have him in mind as I continue the search, and you in my heart.

I was friends w/Jim at RHS & AR TECH way back in the 60's. His wonderful sense of humor, his intellect, his kind & caring ways top my list of fond remembrances. May it comfort his family to know they were a very special part of a well-lived life. I'm certain Heaven is a happier place w/Jim Resimont there!

Jim's family lived a block from us growing up and his father owned the neighborhood grocery store. We spent hours playing together. If he happened to come while we were eating dinner, he would sit down at the piano and play while we ate. We all loved it! I remember him as a gentle soul and have many fond memories of him.
May the family be comforted by the knowledge that he brought much happiness to a great many peoply.

I just wanted to write Jim's family a note and say how sad I am to hear about Jim. He and I were good friends in High School and college. We like to play our ukelele's, play the piano, laugh and talk. He was always very faithful to go to church when he was a teenager, always really good. I will be praying for God to comfort all of your family and to give youall a peace that passeth all understanding. I am really sorry that I will be unable to come to his funeral.
God Bless All of You!

I can't begin to tell you how sad I am that your husband has passed. I pray that God gives you the comfort and peace that only He can give. I pray that you feel His presence with you as you face your life without Jim.
It's a blessing to know you will one day see Jim again, in Heaven. I pray that you have many wonderful memories of your life together with Jim, that will bring smiles to your heart.

We've lost a very dear friend. Our memories include a trip to Pea Ridge battleground, Bible Study Fellowship, the fish our daughter caught at their cabin, and though he had no children at the time he helped at the concession stand at the State Fair to help the youth of the church. Not a day will go by that he won't be missed. Rest in Peace,Jim. We love you.

A wonderful man that will be greatly missed!! He was such a good friend to my family, especially my Dad. They spent many days/hours eating and drinking coffee...making memories! I know for certain he is in a much better place where he has no more pain and suffering. He definitely has earned his wings. Heaven has been blessed with one of the greatest Angels of all! My thoughts and prayers are with Marion, Jim T and Ina Beth! I don't have to tell you how wonderful your Dad was..you already know that. Keep your faith in God strong and he will see you through this difficult time. Love you all!
