James G. Philbin

My father was a partner of Jim's on the Midwest Stock Exchange and I have many fond memories of visiting my dad and Jim on the floor when I was a youngster. I'll never forget his magnetic personality and his distintive voice. He was such a good, kind individual with a great attitude and sense of humor. I remember times when I would visit the floor before going to white sox games and Jim would jokingly say "No don't go, you're a jinx!" The White Sox are going to win it all this year Jim...

I first met Jim back in 1959 on the
old Midwest trading floor where he
became a friend,adviser, & fellow White Sox fan.
My condolence's to his family,he was one of the "good guy's.

Oh Phibby, you were one in a million!

My sympathy to Jim's surviving fmaily. As I remember the days at Loyola Academy, I'll recall Jim and the "good times". May he rest in peace.

Sincere condolences. I worked with Jim on the Midwest Stock Exchange.
