Jim was my best friend from Melbourne (High School class of `67). We surfed at "Two Roads"

Dear Cheryl and family.

Bruce and I were very sorry to hear of Jim's passing. We always viewed Jim as the "patriarch" of the class of 1984 - us "young'uns" looked up to Jim as the solidifying force behind the class. We are sure that a big piece of your heart is missing after 38 years of marriage. I always remember you two fondly and thought of you two as soulmates. Our heartfelt condolences.
