Comments: As my only Uncle, Jim holds a very special place in my heart. I have so many fond childhood memories when all of us lived nearby one another in Southern California and all of the wonderful times we spent together - holidays, birthdays, weekends, races, trips. I am saddened that as we got older and life's demands pulled us all in different directions that we weren't able to spend as much time together as we used to, but I am grateful for all the special memories and will treasure them forever. One of my proudest memories of Uncle Jim was when my brother Todd, sister Gigi and me and our families went to Indiana for the 500 in 1995 and toured the IMS Hall of Fame where a winning race trophy with his name as Chief Mechanic is displayed. Although growing up I knew what he did for a living, it wasn't until then that I truly understood how great he was at what he did. Although he will be dearly missed, I am comforted by the thought of him now at that big racetrack in the sky with his Mom, Dad, Todd, Swede, Scott and other family and friends that went before him. Uncle Jim was a gentle giant and one of the greatest men I've ever known. I love you Uncle Jim, and I will never forget you.

Comments: Hello to all. I am one of Jim's niece's byway of marriage to My Aunt Lynn. What more is there to say about Uncle Jim then he was an example to us all on how to love and how to live. He did both with such such zest. I don't think I can recall a time when I did not see a smile on his face. Although he is where is supposed to be, and his work was finished here on earth, his smile will always stay in our hearts!! Say Hi to everyone in heaven Big Jim, we love ya!!
