Jim Hart was a man of vision. Rarely could you talk with him when he did not get a piece of paper and draw out his plans for what was being discussed. He quietly loved his family and was there for them in need. He loved tools and was always yearning to learn how something new worked. He was faithful and loyal and no one could have been a better brother to sisters than he was to his. About some things one might see a stubborn streak in Jim yet he had his reasons left to be discovered. You might have thought he came through the depression era for rarely did he get rid of anything. He was a gentle giant of a man whose passing will leave a void to be unfulfilled. He was the kind of man who had deep thoughts and great intellect but who never let you think he was anything but a husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather and friend. A life truly well lived.
