My deepest condolences to Dave and Pat on the loss of their son and to Jims family on the loss of their exceptional husband and father.

Our sincerest condolences to Dave and Pat on the loss of your son. What a truly dedicated man.

I worked for Jim at W&C for the short time I was there in 2004...he was a smart, generous, lovely guy. I haven't lived in Maine in over a decade, so just learned of his passing. My sincerest condolences to his wife and children. He is gone much too soon. I am glad I had the chance to know him, if only for a short time. Francine Martin

Our lives are fuller, better and richer for having known Jim. I admire the grace and wit with which he led his too short a life. My thoughts are with you all.

I am very sorry for the loss of your love one James Ekedahl. May you have many happy memories.

Jim playing in our annual Woodard & Curran North vs South offices Hockey Game. We always had so much fun playing hockey with our colleagues, clients and family members. Jim is such an incredible person!!! He had an infectious smile that would light up the room, I can still hear his laugh. I am honored to have known him and worked with him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time!
