We will always remember Uncle James fondly and with love. We watched home videos over this past Christmas and loved seeing him, and all the rest of the family. Cherished memories of people we hold dear.
Rest In Peace, Uncle James

Love,
Sandra, Cara, Katie, and Stephen

So sad to see Jim’s passing. Very much enjoyed working with Jim when I was with Cat. He had the respect of customers, Caterpillar and the industry. Mike Hinrichsen
