To Jim's family- Our son attended Eaglebrook where Jim was a gentle, loving and calm presence-not an easy trifecta to pull off at an all boys middle school. He was so generous with his time and gifts. My prayers are lifted for all of you.

Jim and I worked together at Warwick Community School in the early 2000s. He was a generous and fun loving guy.
