    Joy, Jim, John, and Chris:
    May God bless you at this difficult time. I miss the good times I had with the “boys” on the golf course, and Jim and I juggling our time at Hi-Boy. I have nothing but good memories of our times together.

    Joy..I hated to hear about Jim. Seems like yesterday he was a roommate and you were a neighbor. Joyce and my prayers are with you and your family.

    Our families prayers and best wishes for Jim’s family. We have loved his friendly “hello’s” across the driveway for 14 years. We have many great memories of visiting about our daughter and his granddaughters at the Independence Ballet Conservatory.

    Love,

    The Loos Family

    Jim and I were best friends in the 1970s when we were both patrolmen. He was a role model for me in so many ways. I left to go in the Air Force, but he traveled to participate in my wedding in Florida in 1982 and visited us after my retirement. I will never forget his “stories” – he told them so well. He was a wonderful friend and I have missed him for some time now.
