My deepest sympathy to Barbara and the entire family at the passing of a remarkable man. I went to Westfield with Jim and then we taught together at Glickman School for years. Jim was a very talented guy and was a wonderful friend and teacher. I am sorry that I missed his services as I would never have missed them had I known. God be with you, Jim. Rest in peace.

Sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was a class act and a pleasure to work with in the building of Lorraine's Soup Kitchen. He will be missed by many.
