. I knew Jim long ago, as we were stationed in England together, back in the early 1980's. I have some very fond memories of him as he was a close friend, with a beautiful heart and a beautiful smile. My sincere condolences to his family and friends, I know he was one of a kind and will be missed terribly.

You could always count on seeing Jim at the 'Gym'. Most people ask how your doing as a formality, Jim wanted to talk about it and actually cared. He talked a lot about his daughters which lead me to believe that they were very important to him. I am really shocked and saddened to hear of his passing. He will be missed. My condolences.
