Condolences

The family of James “Jim” Wayne Seiver has received the following condolences.

Jan & Family,

                Deepest condolences on the passing of Jim. I partnered with Jim in the Oak Summit golf league until moving from Rochester in 2008 and I always looked forward to golfing with Jim. He was such a big teddy bear and lovable guy and just a great person and I always admired the love he would express towards his family and especailly Jan while we would chase the ball around the course. 

 

Jan and family...our thoughts and prayers are with you. our sincerest sympathy.

Ron and Kit

Our sincere condolences go out to Jan and the family.  He will be greatly missed on the golf course and I am sure by you.  Am remembering the weekend golf at Oak Summit.  Sue will be getting a hold of you later.  Dave and Sue

My condolences to the Seiver family.  As a young boy growing up in Austin, Jim and I played together frequently.  We also had the opportunity to get together often whenever "Jimmy" visited his grandparents who happened to live next door.  I have only the fondest memories of Jim and the entire Seiver family.

We send our most sincere sympathies to the family of Jim. We have many, many fond memories of him from our years together as Hockey Parents. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

 

Love and prayers.

Smokey & Marilyn
