I worked with James in the 90's at Aetna and we would get together occasionally socially for meals or later in our lives when we each had a family for other events like cookouts. He loved to fish and enjoyed talking about sports too. We lost touch over a decade ago. I felt he always meant well and wish we had a chance to hang out again. I just learned of his passing tonight while talking to another former Aetna employee. I am greatly saddened by this and will keep his family in my prayers.
