I’m so sorry to hear of Jim’s passing. He was a favorite of mine at a doctor’s office where I worked. I will always remember his concern for my son, Peter, who was hurt in a DWI crash. Jim always asked about him every time I saw him.
I am saddened to hear the news of Jim’s passing. The Payne’s were our longtime neighbors when I was growing up. As a little girl I looked up to Jim and admired him. So much so, that I joined the fire department Explorer Post. More importantly, Jim saved the life of my sister when she was an infant. We are forever grateful to him. My heartfelt sympathy to Dorothy and the entire family. I am truly sorry for your loss.
Rest in peace, Mr. Payne. You will always be our hero.

It was an honor to work with, and learn from, Chief Payne at RFD. He was a true leader. Rest in peace old friend Ron Graner
