My son Todd probably doesn't remember this, but I do: Cindy was our first babysitter for Todd when I returned to work, and continued watching Todd until he was 3 or so, I believe. I recall Todd, as a toddler (no pun intended) came home one day and was walking with a very odd gait. I asked him if anything was wrong, and he said, "No, I'm just walking like Mr. Jim!" Todd loved him and looked up to Jim when he was just a little guy. My deepest condolences to the family, to Cindy, Leeann and Jimmy Jr.
