I've worked with Jim since 2003 when he established a fellowship in his beloved wife, Doris' name at Russell Sage College. His generosity helped so many students travel the world uncovering things they would never have been exposed to without this resource. He was an amazingly thoughtful person, caring and humble. I considered him a true friend and will miss him dearly. My heart is hurting knowing he is no longer with us, but his faith carried him through th is world and will through the next.
