We have lost a good and gentle man. He will remain in memory with great appreciation for his generosity of time and talent. His contribution to young people in his role as teacher and mentor was unsurpassed and his friendship to his colleagues was constant. Our wish for Clee is that she will find some solace in knowing the regard everyone had for James.
