I would like to express my condolences to the entire Roberts family. Jim will be dearly missed. I enjoyed it when he an various members of the family were able to attend my cookouts. I enjoy our times at the cabin and on the golf courses. He was a great person!.

Jim's passing leaves a great physical, and emotional void for the rest of us Cabin Classic-goers. Jim joined many of us every year for the past thirty at our September golf outing in the woods of central Pennsylvania. Jim consistently kept the gathering lively!
Jim, you now reside in that place where there is only bliss... Where there is only glorious, green, lush fairways.
May the Lord cradle you in His hands.
You live-on because you live-on in our hearts!
Two Brothers from different mothers,
Randy Reist, Fellow CC-goer

My deepest and sincerest sympathies to the family of "Big Jim". In my years of the Cabin Classic from 1996 to 2002, before moving away from Pennsylvania, I always enjoyed Jim's company and conversation. It was such a pleasure to share stories and an adult beverage with him following each round of golf at the Classic. Again, my deepest condolences on the loss of such wonderful individual. God Bless.
