James was one of those 'ole school gentleman, one that sized you up by looking you in the eye while shaking your hand. He was really a gentleman and a scholar. There ain't many of them left. And there certainly will not be another like him. I will cherish the long distance chats we shared. Rest in peace kind Sir.
