James Stocker - Online Memorial Website

Ann and family
We want to express out sincere sympathy to all of you.  We recently saw Ann and she told us of his illness.  Please know we will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers.

Growing up, Jim was one of our close friends of the family.  We met him through my sis Lisa. I later worked with Jim at G&D.  He was such a great guy.  I will never forget when he took me to Farm Aid.  My dad thought alot of him, too! They will meet again.  My thoughts & prayers go out to the family for your loss.

I send my love and prayers to you, Ann, and all your family.  I have not seen Ann since our days at Kelly Avenue, but I do remember you and all your children.  I can't imagine losing a child, and my heart goes out to you.  God bless you. 

Jim was my neighbor for over 10 years,we would sit on the porch and talk about all kinds of things like camping,electrical,and building things, Jim was always helpful he was a great neighbor. i will miss you dude. my condolences to the family.

I have not seen Jim for many years - but I will remember him as a great guy - laid back with a great sense of humor.  My prayers of sympathy go out to the entire Stocker family - I was very sorry to learn about the passing of Jim.

I was so sorry to hear about Jim. I have many great memories of him and the Stocker family....Jim will be missed very much! My heart goes out to you all and many prayers that you will make it through this hard time. I will be thinking about you Ann, Cyn, Jeff and Cathy and rest in peace Jim...

You taught me many things.... including the err of my ways, in our years together.. Amongst your search for knowledge and roots in the Native American culture and ceremonies, I learned how to live and love peacefully, not in emotional turmoil from my mistakes. You had many admirable qualities, and you helped me in many ways. I will not forget, though I cannot breath when I think of your loss-your steadfastness in the right way of things. I'm deeply saddened with the loss of such a fine human being. As before, and as always... "I Love You". Ann, Cathy, Cyn, Jeff and all.... If you need anything to help in your time of mourning.... please, contact me via email: miki_schultz@yahoo.com My heart goes out to you all!

I was Jim's art teacher for some (most?) of his years at Peoria-Heights High, and am saddened to learn of his illness and passing.  I remember him as such a kind, gentle soul and a very talented artist.  He always had a smile to give to whoever needed it.  My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, with the hope that the great memories that I'm sure they have of Jim will be a comfort in the coming months. 

I am so saddened to hear of Jim's passing.  He was such a kind and gentle soul.  Having him as a dear friend in high school, was such a blessing.  He never had a mean word to say, and would always give you a smile.  Life was a little sweeter with him in it.  Our prayers go out to his family.  God bless you all.  RIP Jim.  You are loved and will be missed dearly.

Your kindness will always be remembered. Prayers go out to your family. May they find the strength to make it through this difficult time.
