Miss jim at the courthouse. A great man and a great lawyer.

I´m like you, Allen my old friend. I can´t believe it´s been 12 years since Charlie Baird and I trekked down from Atx for Jim´s service. Jim was my late father´s favorite prosecutor. My dad had lots of favorite HC Ada´s but Jim he said was so fair. Hope you are well, Allen!

I still think of him often and Mike Cohen who started in our group at the DAs office who has also passed away. RIP Jim.

Jim, you are greatly missed!

I learned of Jim's passing fairly recently, but wanted to take the opportunity to thank Jim for being a true and caring friend and to encourage Linda and their beautiful family about the legacy he left. Our paths kept crossing in our 20's from Principia to Austin to Houston. When I started grad school at UT, Jim was already working for a State Representative and became my fierce advocate in helping me land a wonderful legislative research job. I remember dinners together in Austin with our...
