Jim was a good friend to my husband and me. My husband John and I have known him since Jim worked at Prodigal Media and lived in Poland. We had many laughs and talks throughout the years, and we last saw him at Thanksgiving when he and I had a long talk. I am devastated for you, and I wish I could talk to Jim again and just be there for him. He will be so missed.
