I'm very sorry to hear about Jim's passing. I worked with Jim in finance and as a fellow VBC in the 1970's. I'll always remember Jim as helpful, funny and one with a strong handshake. We still quote some of the Bruddah's stories to this day. Also, to Jim, the veteran was first. Don Prevost

Sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I was a friend and fellow worker at the VA Office in Pittsburgh. There isn't a day that goes by here that we don't tell a story about working with "The Bruddah". He'll is missed.
