Jim Jackson was not only the best boss I had during my entire career working for the Dept of Veterans Affairs, he was also a great mentor and friend. During my career I have always strived to use Jim's leadership skills. I cherish the memories of many great years working under his guidance. I truly loved Jim Jackson. He was a great man.

I was honored to work with Jim from 1972 to 1981. He was a dear friend and a great architect who had time to talk with everyone he worked with. He always had a smile on his face and I will miss the fact that he has passed. Don Colvin, North Haven, CT

Anju and I send our heartfelt condolences to Connie and his family. It was a great pleasure to work with Jim Jackson-a man of honor and respect, in the Department of Veterans Affairs and at NIKA Technologies. At NIKA, Jim was not only working as an Architect, but he was an encyclopedia of architectural standards and criteria. He was always ready with an answer whenever we discussed about healthcare projects, especially the VA hospitals. Jim will be dearly missed. May his soul rest in peace.
