Got to sit with him on a couple different occasions, while watching his grandson box. Was a great gentleman. My condolences go out to the family.

Just found out that a really great man has gone to his reward. One of my most memorable characters. One conversation with Jim and you were hooked forever. Paradise is lucky to now have you.
