My name is Jonathan Evans, I work for Orkin Pest Control, I left Orkin for two years every time I talked to Jim he asked me to come back and I did. I think about him everyday. When I see his chair I miss him. Thank you for the good times and all the laughs.
Dear Debbie, Ryan and Amy, Jim was a man who lived by example. His love of God, family, community and country was reflected by his life. He has left a wonderful legacy. Our prayer is that your sadness and grief will gradually be soothed by warm and loving memories. We are so sorry. With sympathy, Rickey and Pam McCalister
Dear Debbie, Ryan and Amy,
Words cannot express our sadness. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
I will miss Jimmy's helpful gardening advice...he always knew what to do and how to do it. Every time I look at our Crepe Myrtle, I will think of Jimmy and how much I will miss him.
I know how much you will miss him too, but you can take comfort and strength from the wonderful family you and he had together. Your love will help you get through this difficult time. We would also like to offer our help too in whatever you need.... we are just a phone call away or of course, just walk next door! Anytime!
May God bless you and your family during this time and always.
Love, Rose & Bill Goodpaster
Dear Debbie, Amy & Ryan, I am shocked and saddened at Jim's death. Jim was a man who seemed to be true to himself. He loved what he loved and you knew it! I liked that about him. If he loved baseball he loved it passionately as he did with the Lord. He loved the Lord passionately and it showed in his actions. Thanks for being my friend Jim Ortiz. I learned lots from watching you!
I would like to offer my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Jim. May you be comforted by the wonderful promise our Heavenly Father has made at Isaiah 26:19. It will soon be a reality on earth.
Debbie,
We were saddened to hear about Jims demise. He was a good man, one Bill always enjoyed working along side. Please know we will hold you and your family in our prayers, and ask that you and your family's pain of loosing the one you love will soften.

Debbie, Ryan and Amy. You and your family are in our prayers. Jim was a great guy and a good and honorable man. He was someone I admired: a dedicated husband, father, church leader and friend. May God wrap you in the warm embrace of His love and give you strength in the message of hope that is our risen Lord. Jenner and Martha Johnson and family.
