Still thinking about, talking about. and missing my friend and softball teammate--one great guy!

One of the nicest guys I ever met and a great softball teammate. I miss you, Jim. Kirby

I've thought about my friend, "Jimmy," often this past year. He was one of the kindest, loyal, most fun friends, I have ever known. I miss him a great deal.

Jim was a very intelligent early PC user, Very Kind and helpful, he took me under his wing and helped me get membership in the Society of Manufacturing Engineers in 1980 as a student at Acme Institute of Technology and working as a Machine Design Draftsman at Torrington Bearings, South Bend. Jim was very fun loving and enjoyable to work with.

he always had that little boy smile

For the Family of my old softball buddy, Jimmy: The world is a sadder place without him and was a much better place because of him. We will miss him greatly. With fond, fond memories. Kirby Whitacre and Angels Softball Team
