Not sure what to say?

December 15, 2024 Today I was out doing the annual Christmas bird count in rural Montgomery County MD that I did with Jim for many years. I thought of Jim the whole time I was out there and remembered all the good times that we shared while we were out there counting birds. John Stinson

So so sorry to hear of Jim´s passing..he was a long time dear friend of my dad, John Brown..he shared many great evenings listening to music...we all loved Jim, prayers for you Nancy, he´s back hanging with John listening to Count Basie!

Goodby Jim. I´ll certainly miss our wonderful friendship and all of our birdwatching adventures, especially on the Christmas bird count. My deepest condolences to his lovely wife Nancy and his sons Patrick and Bill.

I'm so sorry for the loss of a treasured friend, always ready to lend a helping hand with his special brand of optimism. Jim will be sorely missed, not only by his devoted family, his wife Nancy and his sons Patrick and Bill, but by the legions of friends he made during his sweet and honorable life. It especially saddens me to know that he was the last remaining founding member of my late husband's poker club. My deepest sympathy to Nancy, Patrick and Bill.
