“Peg - With great sadness I send you my sympathy at Jim's passing. He was a one of a kind. My parents & I had the greatest respect and appreciation that he gave us in producing and marketing our corn and soybeans for over 20 years. He was kind & friendly to his family, friends, neighbors. If God needs someone with a farmers heart, he will call on Jim. Jim won't say "But God, I am at rest now". Jim will respond, "Let me get on my chore coat and gloves. Waddya need?" Rose Mary Ernst”
