I worked with Jim at my very first job when I was 15 at his Uncle Dick's Dairy Queen on Military Street. Jim was such a fun person, and I learned so much from him. Ironically, when I got older, I worked as a teller for Bruce, and I liked and respected him very much. I am sad in two different ways, and praying for two wonderful men. And their family and friends. Sometimes you touch people's lives in ways of which you are not aware. I will continue to pray for you.
