My mate Jim was truly "one of a kind" and "one of a find." I worked with Jim and many others in NYC for InBev USA, selling iconic brands such as Stella Artois, Leffe and Hoegaarden. Jim was a mover and shaker, a brilliant mind and entrepreneur and was always creatively thinking and acting on doing things better. Jim was also a superb net-worker - if you didn't know Jim, you were definitely missing out. Jim is a legend that will be sorely missed however never ever forgotten.
