Not sure what to say?

I worked with Jim at MBM in the 90's. He was an inspiration to me professionally. I remember his hypothetical opportunities using "Mr. George Popadopolous" and his missing shipment of "kumquats". He was a great person. My sympathies to his family.

We will deeply miss Jim and will continue to think of him whenever the Duke Women's Basketball team takes the floor. Through thick and thin, he was always one of their most loyal supporters, and generously supported my work as well. Godspeed, Jim.

To have known Jim and his family was a blessing. The fun and enthusiasm he brought to so many of us will always be remembered. His success should be thought of in the many lives he touched and the closeness of his many friends. Susan, my prayers are with you and the kids. I'd love to hear from you.

Jim was like family and when I see him I see his larger than life smile! I am very sorry for your loss Susan. You were sure blessed to have each other and to have the family that you have today! Jim will live on within you all. Many blessings to you all.

God washes the eyes by tears until they can behold the invisible land where tears shall come no more. **I thank God for the good fortune to work for MBM where I know Mr. Sabiston contribute so much and was so loved by all. My prayers to his wife and family. May God give you strength, peace, and many blessings, until you shall meet again in heaven. ~Sharon W.

Dear Susan and family: My friend Jim quickly became and remained one of my all-time favorite persons ever since I joined MBM over twenty years ago and even after retiring two years ago. Jim was a man of tremendous character and class and who always maintained a calm and healthy perspective on life even in the most stressful of circumstances and I have nothing but good memories of him and our personal conversations. May God bless you all richly and keep you in His tender care.

My sympathy to the entire family.
Love and prayers. Lorine McCoy
