Thanks for the great memories Jim, like back in the old neighborhood watching you race your home made rocket cars down Lynnwood, riding bicycles and of course you were always doing a non stop wheelie, or racing our slot cars on the weekend. So happy we reconnected for the 40th High School reunion (Pics attached) I will miss the laughs and your witty sense of humor. RIP my friend.

My best memories of Jim are from a slot car track in Champaign. He loved going there to race his cars!!! Lots of great times at the family resort in Northern Wisconsin as well. Rest easy cousin.
