Jim was a critical thinker, and a high IQ individual. This translated into his work and his love of mechanics and equipment. He also had his own high rpm motor which made him a very busy hard working man. He would often say that there wasn't enough time for him to get everything done. Cancer didn't slow him he was inspirational the way he battled until he was physically unable too. Very sad that he's gone and he will be missed.
