James Zeigler Obituary

One of the best friends I ever had. He was a fine person and I have such great memories of Jim and his family. During my early career, he guided and advised me, this hard head! Our families camped together at Rocks Pond. Those were great times. I miss you friend

Jim was one of the best friends I ever had. I cant express how much this man meant to me in my career. His friendship and guidance will never be forgotten. I pray to see him again so I can tell him how much he meant to me. Bless Jims family.

Special friends only come along once in awhile. Jim Ziegler was one of those special friends who had a strong influence and positive affect on my life and career. He was there when I didnt deserve his friendship, watching out for me and encouraging me. I just wish I could have been a better friend to him. I miss hearing his voice, the good times and the great conversations we had. Today, I celebrate the life, the memories and the friendship of Jim Ziegler. My love to Sandra, Jimmy, Michael, Susan and David

Ms. Z, Susan, Jimmy, Mike, and David, The World is dimmer without Mr. Z in this world. Such an encourager. Red and I will continue to pray for you during this time.

I am so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He and my dad (Clark Sanders) were friends and co-workers and I worked with him years ago at Navelex. He had an unforgettable smile and always had time to ask how you were. He will always have a special place in my heart and I hope your family finds consolation in knowing how he touched so many lives.

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. I worked with Jim for many years beginning at Navelex. My fondest memory is when he was Santa after Hugo. He was wonderful with the children. He will be missed.

To the Ziegler family, please accept my heartfelt condolences for your earthly loss of Mr. Ziegler. As you know, he inspired me as a young man to be the best I could be, not to mention many, many others. To this day, I have not known a man more dedicated to advancing young men through sports, and I owe more to Mr. Ziegler that I could ever repay. During this time of your loss, please know that Mr. Ziegler's legacy will not only live on within your family, but within the countless lives of everyone he touched throughout the years. May God bless you all.

My condolences to all of Jim's family. I worked with him at NAVELEX and we all thought the world of him.
