I am so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I went to school with him and belonged to the Hampshire Rebels Fife and Drum Corps with him as well. I can remember his love of Star Wars and Star Trek and his learning the bagpipes while we were in elementary school. And one memory I have that still cracks me up is when he took of running past our science class in high school as we made our way out to the back field--he was practically running on his knees he was scrunched down so low--squealing like ET, which was a hit movie that year. He looked and sounded just like him! Always cheerful and looking to make others laugh. My condolences to your family on your loss.

In this decades-old photo, Jim and I are enjoying playing together on the Sega Genesis. I wasn't sure exactly what I was doing, but Jim was kind enough to include me nonetheless. Many years later, Jim helped introduce me to the board-gaming hobby about which he was so passionate, and I quickly caught the bug myself. Jim was instrumental in helping me enter the workforce as a young man, and I joined his team at Cambridge Credit. With Jim's coaching, I began to learn how to navigate the professional scene, and picked up tools that I will carry with me forever.
I think the image of the two of us, captured over twenty years ago, perfectly mirrors the relationship Jim and I had in the present. I'll remember him as a mentor, as family, and as a friend, and I know his influence will always be felt.

JIm was one of the most genuine people I have known. An absolute joy to play games with chat with. He listened and cared about what you had to say and he was quick with a quip or a joke. We'll miss you buddy.
