James T. Klingensmith

We are so saddened by this news of Jim passing. We worked together as administrators in New Hanover County in Wilmington, NC. He was very driven to do the best for all children, was loyal and positive, and the best family man to his wife and kids. Just shocked by this tragedy, he will be remembered for being an awesome person. Our prayers are with Amy and his children. Love William and Tammy Hatch

We were very saddened to learn of Jimmy's passing. We've known him since he was a young boy and remember his kindness, his smile and his energy.

When Jim started YSU, we were in the same orientation class and we became friends. Years later we were reacquainted through Campbell schools. He was such a kind person and I saw the positive impact he had on his students every time I entered the building. God Bless him and his family.
