My sincere condolences go to Jim's family, friends, and colleagues. He was a true gentleman, and highly respected both when he was in industry and when he was a regulator. I was greatly saddened to hear of his passing.

To Jim Mumford's family,
I was so sad to hear about Jim Mumford's passing. I loved working with him on NAIC projects. As a regulator, he encouraged input from all sides of every issue. A very special person. Sorry for your loss. Cande Olsen
