Not sure what to say?

Many fond memories of Jim and his family growing up. My deepest condolences to Bob and all of the family.

Jim Hall's enthusiasm for mathematics education touched my life. He co-organized a Math Circle for Middle School Math Teachers with me and my colleague Amy Ksir, but it was really his tireless energy that kept the project running. I feel so lucky to have been there when the math teachers who participated had their own aha! moments and experienced the transformative power of creating and verifying your own mathematical methods. Rest peacefully, Jim. You helped so many people and I am grateful...

Jim´s thirst for knowledge and love of math was only exceeded by his love of family, his kindness and his embodiment of a true gentleman

He was the kindest professor I ever met. God has a new angel in heaven. Linda Vakoutis

Jim was a warm and nurturing individual. We met him a few years ago when trying to find a place to take the AMC tests for our homeschoolers. Out of the many places we tried around Maryland, he was the only one to respond! He was always encouraging and had many good suggestions and definitely had a passion for mathematics and math education. He also introduced us to the AACC High School Mathematics Competition. We will miss his quiet warmth and support. Rest in Peace Jim.
