James E. Schwartz

I met Jim when he was first dating my friend Bev and from the very beginning I knew that they had something special! What a kind and gentle person! He seemed to tolerate anything us girls did and got a kick out of our shenanigans. He had a great laugh and his low voice was perfect for his DJ job and singing in his band. I saw a great son, brother, husband,father,grandfather and friend in him and know that he will be missed greatly. I will always treasure the memories. Joyce

Dear Bev and family , I was so sad to read of Jim's passing.You are,all in my thoughts and prayers. Debbie

Bev, For 22 years we had the great fortune of sitting next to Jim at the UW men’s basketball games. After the first game we knew we had made a friend. Every year there after, we couldn’t wait for the basketball season to start so we could see our friend. Jim will be truly missed. Kindly, LeAnn and Sue.

To the whole Schwartz family, I am sending you my sincere sympathies and prayers. I have known Jim since childhood having the pleasure on being good friends with his brother Joe and being neighbors. Sorry I can’t make it down so I could see you all again. Jim was such a fun person to know. I am so glad I got to see Jim at the Get Back Wisconsin concert at the Barrymore theatre in November. It was such a pleasant surprise. Once again you all will be in my prayers. Cumberland Lane rocks.

Our deepest sympathies to Bev and family. We so enjoyed getting to know Jim through Mike and Cindy at our Badger football tailgating, listening to Jim's rock band and swinging away with him at the Blue's Festival in Duluth . We send our prayers and thoughts. Paul and Eileen
