Prayers go out to Jim's family tonight. I grew up with Marlayna when I was a little girl and then Jim became my CCD teacher at St Cecilia Church, and my children were blessed with looking up to him in CCD when he came down to St. Anthony Church in Taylor Mill. I will never forget his kind heart and sole and his faith in the Catholic Church. He will never be forgotten and he will be missed dearly. Donna & Tony Clem
Jim was such an inspiration to our family in so many ways since we first got to know him as one of our RCIA instructors. He will be greatly missed until, by God's grace, we see him again. Both he and your family have been and remain in our prayers.
Tom and family, Please accept our sincere sympathy on the passing of your dear Dad. What a wonderful life he led as a patriarch to such a large, Catholic family! Such a great example to all with his strong faith, service to his church and so many people thru his ministries and pastoral care. God bless you all! Phil and Patty Ludwig Bellevue, KY
Dear Terri and all members of the Kaelin Family, We are saddened to hear of your dad's death, but as Christians we now take consolation in the fact he is in the loving embrace of his Creator -- pain-free and whole once again! Our prayers and deepest sympathy are with each of you during these very difficult days. This marvelous patriarch of your family has left each of you such a beautiful legacy of life! We join you in praising God and thanking Him for the gift that Your Dad has been for your family and so many others! John & Kay Maier
I wish to send my condolence to the family of Jim Kaelin. I worked with Jim as a volunteer at St Elizabeth Pastoral Care and I am thankful to have known him. I will remember all of you in my prayers.
