Thoughts and prayers to Shelby and family. My dad,
Doug Light, thought so much of Jim and loved
working with him in the Fire Department at
Eastman. It meant so much to our family when Jim
and Shelby came to Dad's funeral last year. We
were truly touched and blessed by it. We have so
many wonderful memories of Jim and Shelby. He was
such a special person and we know that he will be
greatly missed. Our love and prayers are with you.
Jessica, Rose, Kim, and Sarah
Papaw Jim was an amazing kind hearted man. Even though
I'm not his biological granddaughter he treated me like his
own. He will definitely be missed. Love you papaw Jim.
Jim was one of the most loving, caring and thoughtful men I
have ever had the privilege of knowing. He will definitely be
missed. He was more than Jessica Paige could have asked for
in a grandpa! Shelby, Roger, Rhonda and family have our love
and prayers.
My papaw was one of the greatest men that I've
ever had the privilege of having in my life. He
was always interested in everything you had to
tell him, and was such a selfless, caring person.
He will be greatly missed. I love you, papaw.
Sending our deepest sympathies on your loss. Your
family is in our thoughts and prayers, may you
find comfort in knowing Jimmie is at peace with
our Lord.
He was a kind,caring wonderful person and I loved him
back
