The mere mention of JP's name or the sight of him strolling through a paddock never failed to bring a smile to anyone's face. Lucky to have known this true gentleman for over 20 years. He will be so missed by so many.

Jim was a great leader, mentor and friend. He handled every situation with calm and grace. He was a natural diplomat and a great "face" for motorsports. A fierce competitor and an equal teacher, alway's the calm in the storm. He will be missed more than words can express.

Shocked is not a strong enough word to express my feelings, so I can't even imagine what the family is going through. Jim was one of, if not THE nicest, most generous, kind and helpful people I ever met in motorsports. To say he will be missed is beyond the definition of "understatement." He never met a stranger and anyone who didn't know him, once they encountered his smile, they were no longer a stranger. RIP, Jim. Prayers, thoughts, hugs and love to the Pace family.

A finer man was never born. And we loved this man, even though we'd not seen him in a while. He was kind of like a son to us so many years ago. Godspeed Jim.
