Mr. Baldwin took a trip to Hong Kong in 1986. My dad Mr. Marsh was channel 7 sales manager for years. My father just passed away at 84yrs. I found Kroger paperwork from 1985 to current and a great letter from Jim to my dad. What great dad's we had. God Bless, Heather, daughter

Jim Baldwin was a delightful man. We shared many laughs during interviews when he was the leader at King Soopers.
Sorry to learn of his passing.
