Jim was my first college roommate at Penn State. To this day, he´s one of the nicest guys I ever met. Kind, smart, decent, and fun to be around, Jim never had a bad word to say about anyone. I am so sorry to hear about this. The world was a better place with him in it. Rest easy, old friend.

My bottomless condolences to the Glick family. It is hard to put in words the sadness tied with Jim leaving us. Jim was a great person; someone you can always count on and share ideas with. I enjoined our technical conversations and the reoccurring deep dives into the latest developments around quintom physics. He was very proud of his family and loved to share life stories.
I miss you Jim.

It has been a pleasure to have known and work with Jim. He made me smarter, though I don't think he realized that. We didn't interact much but when I had the opportunity to work with him, I'd pick his brain like crazy. I remember him as someone who was always smiling and genuinely kind. Sending many blessings and my condolences to Jim's family.

I was so blessed to have known Jim. We worked together on a project years ago and he was just so kind hearted and genuine. He was always helpful and willing to share what he knew with everyone. Over the years when I would have the opportunity to chat with him he would just beam with all the love he had as he shared stories of his family. Keeping you all in my prayers.

To the Glick family and friends, my heartfelt condolences. I've had the fortune of working with Jim for the past decade and I've learned so much from him; he had so much knowledge to share on a professional level. On a personal level, he was interesting, insightful, warm and caring. He loved his family so much and was such a proud father and husband. I'll never forget our conversations about science, food, football, and philosophy. We'll miss you Jim.

My heart goes out to you and the girls. We - Thomas and I - have been praying for you regularly since we heard the sad news. Jim will be greatly missed -- more for his presence and wit than his knowledge set and technical capabilities. I've pretty much known Jim since he transferred to AZ. I remember how happy he was when you first married, the joy of Kia's birth and then Arianna. So many wonderful laughs and memories as he shared with me the girls exploits and adventures. Faith, he loved you very, very much as evidenced by his devotion to his family. My deepest sympathies on his passing... may you find a measure of peace in knowing he was very much liked and respected by the Cox Family and hearing how highly he spoke of his family.

I had the pleasure of working closely with James for the past year on a work project. During that time, he and I opened and shared stores about life and our families. Him mostly sharing how much he loved his wife. I also got to see the witty and fun side of him. Although many our work days were challenging, we always figured out a way to get lost in conversation to make things lighter. I think most will miss that part about James. He just had a way with sharing and making things better. I pray that Faith, Kai, and Arianna will hold the precious memories of him close to their heart´s and although they may have tears, they will also find a reason to smile. He loved his family so much. My deepest condolences to you all. I pray that the peace of God will comfort you during this difficult time and always. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I was a peer of James who attended his SQL mentoring classes. One day we got a chance to talk before the class started and he told me about his wife and family and how much they meant to him. This touched me and I am sorry for your loss but do know that you were loved and thought of often by him.

I had the pleasure to work closely with Jim since 2009. I admired him for his passion for family, work, and life in general. He had a great work ethic and always willing to help out whenever he could. What I will miss the most is our countless conversations of anything under the sun. He was a great coworker and friend.

My sincerest condolences to Faith and the kids, as well as the rest of the Glick family. I had the pleasure of working with Jim for 11 years and he always spoke with so much pride about his family. There was no question about how much he loved you. Jim had a brilliant mind and a penchant for great storytelling. He was always eager to share his knowledge with others. During football season, I could always go to him for lively discussion. He will truly be missed, but always remembered.

First and foremost, my deepest condolences to the Glick family. I first met Jim at work, nearly 20 years ago, and throughout that time have relied on Jim´s professionalism, resourcefulness and dedication to his teammates and his work. Just a tremendous co-worker. However, Jim was much more than a great coworker; he was a terrific friend. We shared and learned more and more about each other and our families over the years. I know how much Jim loved his family. Jim was a rare person who was always supportive, kind, interesting and just overall enjoyable to be around. I will miss you, and will never forget you. Rest in Peace, my friend.

Faith, Kai and Arianna, my heart goes out to you and all your family. Jim was always a friendly face and excellent resource for our team at Cox. I'll miss hearing him speak over the cubicles about his family and just always being willing to share his knowledge with us. He was one of the first people to welcome me in our department and he will be sorely missed!!! I'll be keeping you in my prayers.

My deepest sympathies to Faith, Kai, and Arianna. Jim would speak of you all often and it was apparent what a strong family unit you have. Jim´s quick wit and light hearted spirit were always contagious around the office. I will miss our conversations and poking fun at each other over football, music, or any other topic. I miss my friend and co-worker dearly, and grieve alongside each of you. Rest in peace Jim.

Jim was a great coworker and friend over these last 17 years. We talked a lot about family, football, and life in general. He was always upbeat and focused on moving forward regardless of the situation. He was proud of his family and loved to talk about how well his kids were doing. I will miss his unique sense of humor.

My deepest condolences to Faith, Kai, and Ari in this moment.

Faith, Kai, and Arianna, on behalf of Jim's work family here at Cox, I wanted to express my deepest condolences to you all. I had known Jim since 2004 and just loved knowing him as a gentle, kind-hearted soul. I enjoyed the street outreach work with both Faith and Jim for the Stand Up For Kids organization and I loved that Jim was so caring in so many ways.

He always brought a smile to people's faces with his humor, stories, and observations. He was passionate about his work and in teaching / serving others. A truly hard working man with a wonderful heart.

He is already missed so much and my thoughts and prayers are with you all.
