My thoughts are with Dr. Fair's family and friends at this sad time. Dr Fair was one of the premier rail historians, yet he always found time to exchange thoughts and data about our mutual interest - the Choctaw, Oklahoma & Gulf. The books he authored on railroad history will remain a gift for future generations.

I am saddened to learn of Jim’s death. I always looked forward to talking with him at AIChE, UT-SRP, and at Fractionation Research Inc. meetings. I along with everyone else will miss him.

Uncle Jim was a true inspiration and a leader that I admired very much. My heartfelt condolences go out to Aunt Merle, Jim (Rud) and Rich. A truly great man was lost on October 11th. I am sure he is at peace with his Lord.

It was definitely an honor to work with Dr. Fair. I spent a brief time as an undergrad working for him and I feel very lucky to have spent that time learning from him.

It was always a genuine pleasure working with Dr Fair ... and an honor to have shared authorship of US Patent 7255777. For me, he set the standard to emulate for "retirement". He will be missed...and remembered with every apple fritter

I am so sorry to hear about Jim's passing. He was a colleague in Monsanto and Fractionation Research Inc., but more importantly a good friend and mentor.
