I never had the pleasure of meeting James, but since his passing I have heard how he touched the life of one of his employees, a dear friend of mine. He sounds as if he was a wonderful man. My condolences for your loss. May your family find peace and solace in your memories of him.

I got to know Jim a couple of years ago when we were representing different parties in a civil lawsuit, and we had stayed in touch since then, mainly through our love of biking and triathlons. I was shocked and saddened to hear of Jim's passing. He was a wonderful man.
