Jim Black, or should I say Master Chief, was my mentor at Naval and Marine Corps Reserve Center, Omaha. He is the reason I made CPO. Fair winds and following seas.

May you rest in peace Pop, you taught me so much about being a better person, you helped me to grow into the man that I am today, you were such an inspiration for so many. I can't remember a time that you didn't take control of a conversation and with that you always used your life's experience to help people to understand. I'll miss you with all that I am and all that I'll ever be. God bless you Mr. Black and say hello to Joshua and Beverly for all of us.

So sorry to hear that Jim Has left this earth. I know him From Donating blood At the Red Cross . He was one of my favorite donors He was always so kind and friendly. I enjoyed talking to him When he came in to donate. This earth will miss having him here. He was the sunshine Always had a smile and story to Share . My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this sad time . Judy Kaiser
