I knew Jim and Sleepy many years. Jim liked to reminese when we drank coffee at Buice’s store wi th Wayne Phillips, and Pettigrew, and Roger Wilson and .Grant and Scott Hayes. We talked about lawnmowers, tractors, and old cars mostly. He was a quiet man and loved to talk. When II stopped by to visit he never wanted me to leave.
May God bless all of you at this time.
