Not sure what to say?

It has been over 3 months since Jim left us and my heart still aches every morning when I look at his picture that sits on my desk thinking that I can't see him or speak with him again, but we shall meet again.

I wish Jim's entire family strength and patience and my sincerest condolences for their great loss. Jim will always be in my heart and his family in my thoughts.

Cheers Jim - Despite losing you as a dear friend, still, I have been very fortunate to have known you.

Jim was here on Earth to make it a better place. He succeeded in that goal and my love goes out to his "girls." He left here too soon for all of us who will miss him. We, who were his Sequoia family, will keep your family in our thoughts and be here for support.

Mark and I, and the rest of the State Treasurer's Office family are deeply saddened by Jim's passing. He serviced the State of California Treasurer's Office with such passion and commitment and someone we truly called a friend. We surely miss him... he will forever be in our hearts and minds. Our condolences to the Hackett family during this difficult time - he thought the world of all of you.

My heart and prayers to the Hackett family. Jim was an exceptional gentlemen with a wonderful intellect, a big heart and a great sense of humor. I am proud to have had the privilege of knowing him as a client focused Bank of America associate and a friend. He will truly be missed but will always be in our memory. God bless.

My condolences to the Hackett family. Jim gave me my first opportunity in banking on his team at BofA, National Markets. He was a great leader and an amazing man.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. He will be missed!

Jim made a very positive impression on me as a gentleman, man of great humor and intellect and one who cared for people and exhibited great patience. I worked with Jim in the glory days of BofA when we had John Rodelli leading our Sales team. I continued to work with Jim as we both called on State of California Treasurers Office and he always exhibited a great sense of humor and was always willing to listen and offer advice if asked for. He is a man to emulate and he will be missed. My...

He was a remarkable man who had great since of humor and caring heart. I'll miss the days when we would sit down and share photos of his grandkids and my kids...such good times. He was a true friend.
