My condolences to you, Edi & Debi. (You may not remember but back in the 80's Jimi, Rex, & I would regularly drop by your place on Indiana—after the bars closed of course.) And my condolences to all the rest of the Florian family and community.

Jimi was the funniest, smartest, kindest, craziest, friendliest person I'll ever know. And the scariest too, but in a good way! It's rare a week goes by I don't think about him or tell someone a good Florian story—involving ingenious home...

I am a retired chemistry professor from UW Sheboygan and I remember Jim from his days at the UW Sheboygan many years ago taking my chemistry courses, organic chemistry in particular. I remember him as someone who kept the class interesting, to say the least. Saw him a few times since he left Sheboygan for UW Madison.

Rest in peace, Jim. My condolences to Jim's family.

I worked with Jim for many years at IWT. He was a great man and I loved his rhubarb cobbler! He once gave me a ceramic vase that he made! Sorry for your loss.

.....lies the seed that with the sun's love, in the spring becomes the Rose.

Jim was a dedicated professional who sacrificed greatly for others. His spirit lives on in those who served with him and is now gracefully looking down upon those who are pressing forward in service to humanity.

Jim sat across from in in our homeroom at South High. He had a wry sense of humor and always brightened my day. My condolences to the family -- please know that my thoughts are with you.

Very sorry on Jimmi lost.

I was a Service Engineer with Jim in the late 80's and early 90's at Illinois Water Treatment. I learned a lot from Jim. His unique style allowed him to think unconventionally to get the job done. Although I hadn't seen Jim in quite a few years, his passing saddens me.

I wish Jim's family my condolences and best regards. Please find solace in the knowledge that he is in a better place.

So sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Jimi was a great guy.
