I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and memories of my twin brother Jim. We who loved him and knew him best will miss him more than words can say. I have lost a part of myself but I hope to be a better man because some part of him will live on in me.

Jim was always had a vision. Those of us who had the opportunity to experience this energy have carried it with us even though we have gone our separate ways. Jim will always be in my heart. My condolences, I will miss him.

Jim was indeed the "Best Of The Best", and insisted that all those who worked for him be the same. Those of us who were priviledged to have been associated with him cannot help but be better for the experience.....We will miss you, Jim.

I was shocked to hear the passing away of Jim Flandreau. We travelled to Croatia and France a few years ago and really got to know him as a heartwarming person. He also hosted a great reception for HE Fidel V.Ramos, the former President of the Philippines duirng his visit to Atlanta. My prayers to Jim and his beloved wife Ingrid and his family.

Jim opened the energy business to me years ago when I joined PIC. Many great times, good memories, and learned a lot. Appreciate more now what I learned back then.

He will be missed.

Mr. Flandreau opened the energy world to me, treated me with great respect and gave me wisdom, in the most casual of environments when he didn't even know me. I owe him a lot, that conversation helped define the life I live today.
