Jon:
I was sorry to learn of your Father's passing. No matter how old you are, it's still very difficult losing your Dad. I did not know your Dad, but he sounded like a kind and gentle soul. My sympathy to all.

James was a gentleman, in manner, in behavior, and most importantly, in heart.
We are lucky to have his son, Paul, as our son-in-law, who was raised by him as also a true gentleman and a smart scholar. It has been truly our great privilege to know James. We will miss him forever.
