I appreciate you leaving your comment, Laura. It’s amazing how many remember Jim from even way back. I’ll ask Jeff if he remembers Beth. Two of my best girlfriends graduated from Auburn around that time so they probably know her too.

Thanks for your prayers, Dolly. They’ll reach out to many who loved Jim. This morning I listened to his funeral that was posted online and it was amazing to hear the stories of how authentic Jim was, and how he was such a follower of Jesus.

I, too, attended AU in 1984, graduating in 1985, and visited Auburn Church of Christ and the Student Center on a number of occasions with a good friend at the time, Beth Spangler. I wonder if your Jeff remembers her? Jim certainly has made a huge impact to more than one generation!

I agree, Tammy. Even though we live in the “now” moments, we also need to consider that how we live now will affect “later.” It matters.

He was an amazing man, Jen. I know everyone is amazing in their own ways, but it’s easier to recognize it in some people, especially when they seem so “ordinary” from the outside and aren’t striving to be known. Jim was such a man. To God be the glory.

And I wonder if even in the next life we’ll fully understand how much those ripples mean. There’s no way for us to measure the ripples ourselves, but just to know that they’re valuable is important.

Just reading it made me want to know him. This post also makes me think of people who have created a ripple effect in my life. Much to give thanks for…

And my heart is with you in your grief…

My heart goes out to the family who lost someone they love.
