Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Polly, We are so sorry for your loss. Even though we did not know Jim, we know he must have been a good person to have been your husband. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Jim was an honest man with a big heart. He was always available to help friends in need. I will always remember his sense of humor. Even when things were not going well, he could always come up with humor to lighten things up. He will be sorely missed!
Polly, I am so sorry for your loss. It is comforting to me to know that your mother is with you. In reading the tributes its apparent that Jim was a very special person and will be missed by many. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and I am only a phone call away if you need a friend.
It has been my pleasure to work with Jim these past 12 years at FlightSafety. I first Knew of Jim from th St.Louis area, we had many friends in common but never met personlly. We often shared memories of our early career’s as we trained clients from our past. I worked closely with Jim all the time and we both joked about retiring every week. I will miss him and his friendly smile.
This was a shock! I saw him last week and he was his usual pleasant and funny self! He was a very personable and chirpy character. He loved his popcorn at FlightSafety. He will be missed. My sincere condolences to his family and May The Almighty Rest his soul in peace.
Polly, you have my deepest sympathy and know that if you need an ear I am here. In time your pain will subside and only happy memories will be what is called to mind. Remember God is near to those who are broken hearted.
Jim was an outstanding employee of FlightSafety International and had just celebrated his 12th year with the company. Jim instructed in the Citation VII program and was a much sought after instructor by clients that had previously been taught by Jim. His easy going style and affable personality took all of the stress out of a demanding curriculum when taught by Jim. He was a much respected aviator, teammate, and friend by all that knew him in his professional resposibilities.
Polly, I am so sorry for your loss my thoughts & prayers are with you @ this time. If you need anything please don’t hesitate to call me.
Jim was a super guy to work with. Always upbeat, spontaneous and full of fun as well as a plethora of intellect! There was nothing he wouldn’t do for someone if asked. Because our clients loved his method of teaching, he was one of our most requested 135 Instructors and Check Airman. My sympathy goes out to you, his family, with prayers that God will give each of you peace through wonderful memories.
Polly, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts & prayers are with you and your family in this time of sorrow. Please know that we are all there to stand beside you during your time of need.
Polly, my precious little angel, My deepest condolences go out to you and your family. My prayers are with you. I know what you are going thru. I have been there before.If you need to talk or cry give me a call. Love Katie
