I have too many memories of Uncle Jim to list them all. He was 16 years older than me so in my earliest memories I looked up to him as someone i wanted to emulate. He had the coolest car ever. He introduced me to Black Cat fireworks. My first pheasant hunt was with Uncle Jim and Uncle Harry. He could ride a horse with ease. He was also really good at freeing the cows that Chet roped in the coral. I also started to recognize, through my Uncle Jim, what a tender heart looked like. He made me fell safe. I saw his love for Sherry, Kent and Michele, and for Grandpa and Grandma Harmon and his extended family. He was always a gentleman and never saw himself as "above" others. He was such a humble man. Because of his humility, I don't think he had any idea of his influence and impact on me and my brothers (the 4 Robinson boys who had lost their Dad). I always admired Jim for his life of hard work and how he provided for his family...again, an example to me...serve and care for your family. Thank you Uncle Jim! Love you Aunt Sherry. Your endurance and perseverance in caring for your husband was an amazing demonstration of your love for him. Michele, I'm thankful you had such an amazing Dad. I admired your relationship with your Dad. Your love for each other has always been evident. Praying for you, Aunt Sherry, Michele, Chris and Kerri Jo.
