Not sure what to say?

Jim and I had many conversations about the emotional aspects of Ak since I had a doctorate in Psych. His mind was so good at adapting those concepts in his book. I shall miss him

As a new member of ICAK back in 1999, Jim was one of the first docs to walk up and introduce himself. We were immediately friends and I looked forward to talks with him every year. Bless You Jim, you are in my heart.

My name is Erin Roselle Poe , I'm Dr Tom Roselles daughter. This man helped me years ago during one of my trips to ICAK. I was on a sky slope and froze with fear, he was able to tape out a few spots on my face and I was able to ski again. I have never forgotten what he did for me. My sympathy goes out to all of his family. Very sorry for your loss of a great man.
God bless

Jim was a mentor and and great friend. Many years ago he used his phobic response technique to pull my daughter off a ski slope in Colorado when she accidently ended on a double black diamond and froze. A loss to all of us.

My sympathy goes out to the family during your time of grief. May God's loving-kindness comfort you and help you through this difficult time. (Psalm 119:50,76)

I loved you and will miss you very much!
