James Rase

Jim was a great person and friend and coworker. He could always connect-the-dots for me on anything Apollo! He often would call me while he was driving to a casino...or to dinner with his CLE family/friends. It was always exciting to be on a work trip with him (Nashville, Erie, Halifax, Denver). But, the most fun was once when we met in Las Vegas for a long weekend fun trip. He sure knew how to get the comps and had a two-pocket system of how to almost always go home with more money than...

Jim was a wonderful co-worker and friend. He was a walking encyclopedia at our company and I could ALWAYS count on him for a friendly answer to any question I had. I can't imagine someone who was a harder worker than Jim. He taught me so much! He was also someone with a dry wit and I looked forward to his semi-regular cartoon of the day in my inbox. I'll miss him a great amount. Blessings to all his family and friends!

Jim was a former co-worker and had a wealth of knowledge. He was always willing to share his knowledge when needed. Jim was a Cleveland baseball fan, and I am a MN Twins fan. I am SOOO going to miss our banter back and forth during baseball season. It was always in good jest and gave us a chuckle. He will be greatly missed.

He mentored so many instructors over the years and made us all stronger in our roles as a result of his knowledge. He was always willing to raise his hand for any assignments and never hesitated to pitch in wherever we needed help. When we traveled together for work, we always managed to find a casino somewhere that was in the...

I knew Jim from Grace Lutheran Church. A wonderful guy who was very kind. I’m so sorry to hear about his passing. God bless him .

It’s so sad to hear of Jim‘s passing. He was a fun loving guy always up for a road trip with a million stories to tell to make the time fly. A great friend you could rely on and he will be sorely missed. Wednesday nights, texting and New Year’s Eve will never be the same. Rest In Peace Jim. Go get ‘em...

Jim was a wonderful colleague and friend. There wasn’t a kinder or more generous person than Jim. I cherish our times together both on and outside of work. I will always love and miss you Jim! Be at peace!
My heart felt condolences to Jim’s family and friends.
