My condolences to the family. I believe Jim to be the same Jim McCune that I worked with at Eisler's Nursery in the '60's and early 70's. We had a great time working in the same crew and I can remember the payday lunch trips to the point to cash checks and grab a steak sandwich. I also remember bowling with Jim in a summer league.
