Jim was the Patriarch of Cambridge Square. He was kind and respectful to all. Also, very funny and interesting. A true Renaissance man. So well read and a friend to all. It's hard to imagine this community without him. Maureen and family, my heart and prayers go out to you in this difficult time.
Jim, thanks for the memories.
