Willie,
I was very saddened to learn that Jim had lost his battle. You and your family have my deepest sympathy. I certainly enjoyed working with Jim at Wayland. He was always very pleasant to work with and was an excellent analyst. We lost contact for years, but re-established it with the Thursday lunch group. For 2 yrs. or so we exchanged e-mails on things like the history of the Gleasondale Mills and discussed your health issues and his genetic problem at the Thursday lunch. I will certainly miss Jim, as will all of his many friends in the Thursday lunch group. Larry Lavallee, Stow, MA
