Jim was a Life member of the National Bottle Museum. It was always a pleasure to see him and Joyce at the Saratoga Show. He was a very nice man. Our deepest sympathy to Joyce and his family.

"Uncle Jim" was our dear neighbor and friend on Harvey Road for decades, and well before that our grandmother had come over from England on the same boat as "Aunt Joyce" in 1946. He was a great man -- upright, honest, hardworking, interesting, and hospitable. I would be proud for my sons to grow up and be like him. Love to Joyce and Jay.
