James Nelson

Another Brother gone. RIP Jim many memories from our fraternity days.

I'll never be able to drive by a highway sign that says "Do Not Pass" without thinking of my brother. Jim would always comment, "We're going through Donut Pass again," always with a chuckle and a teasing twinkle in his eyes. I miss you Jim.

I met Jim through my cousin Char, so we had many interactions over the years. Jim was always so kind and friendly. He genuinely cared about people he met and interested in what they had to say. When he met my little granddaughters for the first time, they immediately wanted to hang around him. I know they sensed his gentle and kind spirit. We are so sad he is no longer with us on earth but know he is watching over all of his loved ones from above. RIP in Peace, Jim! You are loved by so many.

When we were growing up, going to Scobey was what we looked forward to most of all. Seeing our grandparents and our cousins was the best! Going downtown and to the park and the pool was fun. Jim would sit with me at the piano in the living room at their house and he taught me how to play all my favorite tunes. I'll always remember him showing me the intro to "Light My Fire". I can still play it just the way he showed me.

Great picture and very much how I remember him from the SipEp house when I was there. Quiet and a smile, and willing to help me on computer stuff that made no sense. I knew him as Selmer and counted him as a friend. So sorry to learn this and my heart aches for those who loved him most! God Bless to all.
