I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Jimmy Nicholson. I had tried for a long while to locate him to tell him of his and his family's affect on my life. I was a young child when I was welcomed into the country home of Jimmy's family. I learned of so many things in that brief time, from caterpillars to swimming in icy cold water. I know my love of nature was born while with his family. I wish I had been able to tell him thank you for his touch on my heart and life. My condolensces to his family.
