I am so sad to hear this. Jime was a wonderful, friendly man I met through my job. He would come in himself once a month in the warm months to get his permit for the food vendor set up in front of his business. I remember he would always answer, "100% American!" when asked if he was paying with cash. Such a sweet man, he will be truly missed.
