Dear Family,
May The Lord God blanket you with his loving arms during this time of bereavement. Jim was such a warm, loving, and kind spirit. He had a tremendous smile. My condolences to the entire family.

Dear Connie and Zimmerman family, I am deeply sadden to hear about the passing of "Zim". He was a good classmate during my four year at Benedict and a great Omega Psi Phi Fraternity line brother. I will never forget his sense of humor, especially during our pledge period. Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss. God Bless!

The passing of a love one is always a difficult time especially in the beginning. Love and support is always a source of energy to family members. Mr. James was a co-worker of mine at PMR lab, we enjoyed lot's of day's sharing our lives together which made us good friends, we always found things to laugh about. I'm thankful to have known him. Peace, love and blessings to Connie and the family.

I'm so sorry to hear about Jim's passing. He's been a friend to me at Sandy Level. A time or two he even popped into our ladies' Sunday School class and joined in. I was hoping we'd be able to get him to go to Nicaragua with us on a mission trip some day. It's with fondness that I remember meeting him down at the Koger Center after a concert, while my mom sat a played that piano in the lobby--he sure enjoyed good music! His bright smile was always cheering. I'm better off for having known Jim!

Dear Connie, Mica and William-
I was so sad to hear of Jim's passing. I worked with him for 15 years at Ciba and then many more years after the merger. He interviewed me when I came to Ciba and I will always remember his laugh and friendship that lasted until the day he retired.
My condolences to you all at this painful time.

Dear Connie & family,
Linda and I are deeply saddened when we heard of Jim's passing. I worked with Jim for only 2 years. But I can tell you, those were the best 2 years of my career. All because of Jim, we had so much laughter together, it made many people jealous.
He was at Adam's wedding and he looked so healthy. I thanked God that I was able to see him then.

I am sorry to hear of your loss. When we lose someone in death, the pain, the grief and the feeling of helplessness can seem unbearable. The Bible promise: "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more. Neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things has passed away." The Bible gives us hope that one day our dead loved ones will be brought back to life.(Revelation 21:4)
