I just found out about this today, 2-17-05. My sympathy goes out to Barbara and the children. It comes as a shock to me, although we drifted apart 20 years ago I still have very fond memories of the fun we had in the 70's. Had thought of him many times since but had no way to get in touch with him. He was one of my very best friends I ever had.

RIP Jim, my ole buddy.
