Jim was loved and admired by his patients, some of whom traveled hundreds of miles for his care and whom Jim and Geri considered their extended family. Jim's patients loved his kind and gentle touch and genuine regard for their well being as well as his " big kid" like sense of humor. Jim will be remembered by his patients and colleagues as a dentist who never compromised ethical standards, placing the well being of his patients above all else. His many friends admired him for his love and kindness toward others, positive attitude about life, and his engaging, humble and friendly demeanor.
