My deepest sympathy to the entire family. We are friends of Annette and Dave and traveled with them to China in 2003. You are all in my prayers.
Kim & Andrew Merkert and girls
Everyone at IMCO always enjoyed Jim with his interactions with us as a member of our buying association. Jim was always "upbeat" and brought joy to those around him. It was a special treat for us to see him each year at the annual IMCO convention. He was well liked by everybody. We’ll miss him.

I always enjoyed Jim’s visits (sales calls)at the doctor’s office; he made the day a little brighter! It so happened that Jim and my husband shared a love of postcards/stamps. Our thoughts and prayers will be with your family.
