Jim Wadley was one of the finest men I’ve ever known. I thank God that we were truly friends, good friends. He opened his home and heart to my wife and me when we were missionaries.
Even tho Jim didn’t know me from Adam, he allowed me (and later, my wife Kathy) to stay with him whenever we were in town. During one visit he started talking to me about a sweet lady named Gail. Eventually she became a very pleasant and important addition to that home!
We love you Jim and Gail. Can’t wait to see you both again!!!

Jim was my uncle. I thought he was so kind and loving and enjoyed spending time with him. I remember how he loved to talk and laugh. The last time I saw him, about 17 years ago, he blessed me and my children with beautiful handmade (by him) quilts. We treasure them. He will always be remembered. ❤

Jim was one of the kindest gentleman I’ve ever known. He was always friendly and welcoming to my family back when we went to the same church Our thoughts and prayers are with Gail and family during this difficult time.
