I would like to express my condolences to Jims family. Jim and I grew up together in the country here in Pa. We had lots of good times as kids and lots of good memories, expecially going skating on Friday nights. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Jean, you and I have never met; I am a long-time friend of Judi’s and family. I have many fond memories of Jim Horne; I always loved his sense of humor!
God bless you Jean, in your time of loss.
Jim, “Dad,” may you rest in peace. I wish you fair winds and following seas. You will be missed.

I am glad I was able to share your wedding day and a wonderful weekend as a guest at your home. Jim was great fun to be around and was a gracious host. I am sorry your time together was short , but I know they were good times. I will always be here for you. I love you.
I’ll never forget the road trip Pap and I took to visit my Dad, Joe Horne, in Fl. He packed us little baked ham sandwiches and brownies, all individually wrapped and neatly placed. I know where I get my organization from! He was stern and straight forward. I hope he enjoyed his last few years. My condolences to the rest of the family and his wife.
Papap, I have some good memories of you when we would come up to visit Mom, Granny, and You. I will miss you.
Love, CK
