Jim was a college friend and fraternity brother at UK. I knew him during my 4 years there. We enjoyed our friendship. He was a great person. I remember him well from the good times we had together and with other friends during that time at college. I have thought of him often since then, but never knew how to get in touch. After college I moved to Texas to join a firm that employed me from a college interview, and have not returned to Kentucky since that time. Today, 4/18/2018, for some reason I was thinking of him so I typed his name into my computer hoping to find a way to send him a note, but found his obituary instead. I am so very sorry to hear of his passing. I'm sure he is being missed by those who knew and loved him. May God bless Jim and his extended family.
