Default RIP Jim B (JimB87)

It is with great sadness we post the passing of one of the original WMC members Jim Berryman. JimB_87

Jim passed away last week. Memorial details will be announced at a future date. He has been returned home to Arkansas.

So many memories looking back through pictures. Will remember Jim always being there to help someone no matter what. Jim struggled with health issues and a series of strokes as many know the past few years affecting his ability to drive but once in awhile he popped into Culvers with the Blue 98. Most will also remember his Yellow 87


Details for a Crew memorial event TBA.

Just found this as I was ready to get into Vette season. Jim was one of the first guys I talked to after meeting everyone and he was always a great person to talk to. RIP
