We raced with Jim for years and he was always smiling and was an absolute joy to be around. Always looked forward to racing with him. Thoughts and prayers to the entire family – Bronson Combs

Haven’t seen Jim for many moons but I have fond memories of him. We went to elementary school together and he and his family lived across the street from us. So sorry to hear of his passing. – Jackie Baker

I’ve known Jim since elementary school. I have so many memories of fun times we had. My prayers to Julie and Babs and the rest of his family and friends. Even though I have not seen him for years, when I look at this picture I can see the Jim I remember and hear his laugh. Love to you all – Patty Torbet

Hi Julie and family…many of us knew Jim as kids back home in Sedalia…my brother was a close friend in HS…they did track together, and we remember his dog Eagle from back then. He is being remembered by friends on Smith-Cotton High School Class of 72 facebook page. I will share his photo…so wonderful to see his face again. Our condolences – Missi Knight

To all the dear friends and family of Jim Blaine, and especially to you, Jullie: Kip and I were so shocked and so sorry to hear of Jim’s passing! We truly enjoyed him and especially the dog training comparisons we would talk about when I (Sandra) worked at SpectraGraphics. Truly enjoyed working with him and talking dogs with him. He had such an infectious laugh and he never failed to make those around him smile when it was needed most. What a blessing it was to have him in our lives! Truly, if you need anything whatsoever, please do not hesitate to get in touch! You have our deepest sympathy. – Kip & Sandra Anderson
