Hey Bubba, been a bit of time since crossing paths and not my favorite way to reconnect. Bonds, basis points, charts and whatever it took to write a ticket. - what a way ta make a living huh?
You were always the "Big Thinker", Elliott Waves, Fibonacci's, Butterflies and more stuff than I could comprehend. I remember the stories Rourkie would recount about your Providence to Boston dailies. The oversized "Caddoo" manned by chauffeur Rourke along with Ronnie (does he ever stop talking), Donahue and possibly some other weary men of Wall Street. Them's be the days of memories good and not so bad in retrospect.
I am sure you will have a good crowd tomorrow tipping their hats and possibly sharing a brew and toasting your friendship over the years.
My hats off to you and bull or bear, I am sure you will be playing the markets or providing your expertise in the days ahead. I forgot you were a sailor until I saw your image at the helm. Final word Jim, keep yer keel wet and follow the charts - aquatic or financial.

Jim's grace, his wit, his intelligence and his integrity centered us all in our recent endeavor. He was a man in full. We have lost a good friend and a good man, too soon.
