Jim Bradley was one the nicest, most generous and incredibly talented musician. Jim and Joan have helped me when I needed it most and I will always have love for them in my heart. Rest In Peace, my friend and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your friendship, mentorship, generosity and love. You will be missed, but not forgotten.

I was shocked to hear of Jim's passing. It made a hole in my life and my soul. Of all the band leaders I played for over the years, nobody loved the music we were playing more than Jim.
There were times that we were rehearsing and didn't really have any gigs to prepare for and I sometimes didn't really feel like coming but then I would remember all the joy that getting together and playing the music gave Jim and it was all worth while. And I have to admit that I always felt better when I was leaving the rehearsal. His love of the music had rubbed off on me again. Jim, enjoy your new life of eternal happiness. I'll real miss you.
