Now the baton is passed to two great young men whom Jim trained until they started their own businesses - Joe Tucker (352) 430-5615 or Brent Mauriell at (352) 250-2573. Please call them for your future needs! And be on the lookout for Jim in that same hat out and about in The Villages!
Oh No!! I was just going to call for an appointment. Jim was the best!!! Here's wishing him a happy and healthy retirement (again) !!!!!

Hello Holly,

Best wishes for you and Jim. I had several emergencies that Jim was able to fix in short order. I glad to hear that you guys are going to enjoy some well deserved retirement. I guess this means I will have to stop recommending Jim to all my friends and neighbors. Enjoy!

Smile Thanks, Jim

Jim was always my "go to" guy.

Thanks for all your help each and every time, Jim.

Enjoy your retirement (apparently "again". )

Jim was always at the top of my list for my clients and myself. Congrats, Jim, on your retirement. Holly, my condolences on having Jim around the house so much more. (Wonder how long it will take Jim to explain how everything works in the kitchen and the easiest way to repair it should it ever break.)

Jim - Enjoy retirement. You were a great resource as well as an honest businessman. If you recommend the 2 gentlemen referenced then that is who I will call. Have a great time, not working. Cheers

So sorry to see you retire, but I can't blame you. Enough is enough. I have used Joe Tucker, and he is very good. Thanks Jim for all the service you gave us.
