Sometimes it is the quiet man who serves humanity best. Jim was such a man. Not many knew of his generosity and kindness toward so many. This was typical of him. He was also a talented athlete in his day in baseball and was scouted for a career. He always encouraged the young kids to play and excel. I am sorry I learned of his death so late. My sympathy to Jim's cousins and to a world which is dimmer.

Mr. Rihbany,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
