My memories of Jim shall be there always, as the great moments with the Tabor Hill Jazz Band. I played piano, and felt a great joy in the ensemble as it projected The Dixieland offerings. There was a special moment at the end of each gig when we played The Eyes of Texas, since so many of the group were alums of Texas A&M. They had tears in their eyes, and I have tears in my eyes when I play it on the piano before my daily gig is done and I go to bed. God bless Jim and have him rest in eternal peace.
