Mr. Caldwell was one of the kindest gentlemen I've ever known. In my thoughts and prayers.
With All Our Love
We know he was a wonderful man.
From all the stories over the years.
He raised wonderful children.
So I know he was a happy man.
Love and strength to all his family â¤ï¸
Granny Gladys and Grandpa Jim raised my daughter. My Paige is probably older than your kids, but she loved Granny and Grandpa and she really loved it when all their kids came home to visit. She especially had fun with Norma. I'm so sorry for your loss, but James was raised right. You know where he is.
Jim was a wonderful friend to both of us at Parkway Village. He welcomed Don as a lunch buddy in the dining room at the Commons. Then was a welcomed soul and spirit for Jeanette at meal times at Parkway Health. Our daughters Kelly & Kathy always enjoyed his smile and conversation at PW Health. Such a gentleman.
Mr. Caldwell was such a sweet man! I will truly miss him !! So glad I got to meet him ! Thank you Becky for allowing us to take care of him at PHC!! Rest in love !! â¤ï¸â¤ï¸
