I'm almost at a loss for words due to the fact that I could write pages upon pages about my Papaw Jim and it still wouldn't be enough. Not only was he a wonderful friend, husband, and father- but, he was an outstanding grandfather. He truly defined the GRAND in grandparent. He was often quite reserved but, when he talked to me or any of my other cousins it was almost as if his whole face would light up. When he would tell you something, it would always be with the greatest sincerity and I knew I could always trust his opinions. Anytime any of us ever needed anything he was always there with his arms wide open. I will never forget how he stepped in to comfort my mom, my sister and I when we really needed him. If he wasn't taking me to buy fireworks for fourth of July he was informing me of where the secret stash of candy was... and I'm not just talking about what was in the kitchen! I would just like to tell him thankyou more than words can describe, because, I wouldn't be the person I am today without him. Much Love. *Megan
