James Cottington

Jim, thanks for all your help, hard work and care you put into making our 50th reunion even more memorable with the DVD you created for us. You are missed & loved by many friends, including me. Say hi to Mike when you see him, and Paul, too, and our other classmates there. I'll see you again, just not too soon my friend. May the Good Lord greet you with open arms and say to you, "Well done, my good and faithful son." Amen. —Paul Stewart 12/15/16

May the Lord take you in his arms and embrace you for all eternity. As Paul Stewart mentioned, say hi to all that have gone before us. Rick Pertzborn 12/15/16

God bless you, my friend. You were taken from us too soon. Rest In Peace in eternal joy.

Jim, you will be missed by the Badger Stamp Club and the philatelic community here and in the world as you were a contributor to our club and various philatelic societies over the years. You continued a tradition that started with your father as a member of our club and was passed down to you. Hopefully there will be a stamp club where you end up. Charles Shoemaker President, Badger Stamp Club

I miss you Jim! I am super lucky to have known you if only for a short time. I will always remember your incredibly detailed stories even though John swears some of them never happened. Thank you for helping shape Jay into the man he is today. I am forever grateful for that. Rest in peace. Oh, and could you possibly help the Badgers out from up there?
