Jim will be missed dearly. Our time working together at the Brewery as he was in the Safety office next to the Union office we worked closely on many issues. We golfed in Florida often and even drove once instead of flying which may have been one of the best trips I´ve been on. Jim helped so many people at work and in life. I will always remember JB Rest in Peace my friend.
