I had the pleasure of working with Jim at State Rep Mike Driscoll s offices. He always had something nice to say. He loved staying involved...with the businesses in the 173rd District...taking a young man under his wing and showing him the ropes or working on the campaign or helping out at our events.
He will be missed.
