Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. Jim was a relatively new acquaintance of mine but from the first time we met I knew he was an extremely intelligent man. He spoke of such love for his family, the tranquility of being in or outdoors fewing the surrounding landscape and the many stories reminiscing of days gone by. A truly great man whom I will miss.

  2. Our hearts are broken, we have lost a very dear dear friend, We miss Jim already, but he will never be forgotten. He always greeted us with a smile and hugs. We have so many memories and good times over the years we have known Jim and Harlene. He will be missed deeply. Prayers for HARLENE and family.

  3. “Words cannot express how much brother Jim (as we called him in Pa.) will be missed by us & all of the friends that Jim & Harlene made here in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
    We all had great times together and memories that will last our whole lifetime.
    Our sincere condolences to Harlene and Family. Brother Jim will always be with us in our prayers and thoughts.

    Your Friends Always;
    Stephen & Jeanne Cucura
