Jim was kind, even-tempered, witty, smart and sensitive to others´ needs. He had to help "downsize" Digital Research when we worked there. This meant flying to various locations in the country and laying people off. He decided the most economical way to do this was not to get a hotel room and visit the field office, but to ask the employee to meet him at the airport. He treated them with dignity, trusting they wouldn´t trash the office, steal from the company, or do anything unprofessional....

Always cheerfully remembered by his friends from work; Jim was kind to everyone in the office, funny, smart and humble. Comforting thoughts and prayers to his family.

To Jim's Family: Several other former Digital Research employees asked me to send our sympathy to you on Jim's passing. When you have his memorial, please share that he is remembered as a smart, kind, laid back and fun person. Jim treated everyone at Monterey headquarters and in his Boston office with respect, and that's why we remember him 30-some years later. Lita, Bill, Bruce and I send our kind thoughts to you all.

We are so very saddened to learn of Jim's passing. So enjoyed our time together boating with Jim at Essex and Noank CT. He was our good friend and was always fun to be with. We'll remember him always. Janice and John Messer, Old Lyme CT.

From all your friends at Digital Research who enjoyed knowing you. Even as the company cut back, you managed to keep the East Coast Operations in good spirits! Rest In Peace, Jim

Jim made it easy to evolve beyond a business relationship to become a close friend. He will be missed by so many of those who knew him well.
