I was blessed to serve my first pastoral appointment as Jim's associate pastor during his final appointment before retirement. I remember Jim as a man of intelligence and integrity who sincerely loved God and people. I learned many good lessons from Jim, and will always be grateful for the years we spent together. God's blessings to Juanita, Bethlyn, James, and the rest of the family.

Dr. Killen was the pastor who both baptized me as an infant and confirmed me as a teenager during his service at Ashford UMC in Houston. His loving and gracious leadership was my first image of pastor, and one I carry into my teaching of other future UM ministers at Iliff School of Theology. Much love to all of the family in this time of life, and much joy at the deep and wide legacy of Dr. Killen.

Jim was our beloved friend and pastor at Williams Memorial in Texarkana. He was always there for us. He married our daughter & stayed by our side when we were facing health issues. He shared his faith in ways that strengthened our own. He was a true man of God, called to his profession. We will miss his friendship now that he has now joined the great cloud of witnesses. Our deepest sympathy to Bethlyn, Juanita & all the family. You have a great legacy to share with others.
