I just learned of Jim's passing today and that news deeply saddens me. I am so sorry for your loss. I met him in 1999, when I purchased my first Lexus from him. I have purchased four others from him through the years. I always appreciated and valued his opinions, honesty, and sincerity! My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

So sorry to hear of his passing. Talked to him 3 weeks ago. I live in Muhlenberg county, Ky. I first met Jim in 1999 and have leased 6 Lexus from him. He was the nicest and most honest person I have ever known. May God be with you and you can be proud of him. Remember the good times, it does help.

I was shocked and very saddened to learn of Jim's death. I bought 3 cars from Jim while he was at Lexus. He was always very honest, candid and helpful. He made the purchase of a car very easy. I certainly extend my thoughts and prayers to his family, friends and coworkers at Lexus. He will be missed by many.

Donna and Lauren my thoughts and prayers are with you. I know how hard this is. I do take comfort in knowing Tom and Jim are together somewhere yelling at some sports referee.
