Very sorry to hear the news of Jim´s passing. My late husband Dr. Thomas Tervit and Jim were classmates and colleagues in Burlington. I also would see Jim at Aldershot Tennis Club where I am a member also. Remember having fun with Jim and Susan at the club´s year end banquets, visits to their cottage when it was being built, playing hockey in Watertown at their rink and their dinner parties. I will cherish my memories. Please accept our condolences.
