It was my privilege to work with Jim for many years in the Bloomfield Family History Center. He was a faithful and tireless worker and an expert in many areas. He taught me alot. He had a following of patrons whom he helped and they adored him. As the former director, I appreciate everything he did to make the FHC a special place.
