To the Feak family,
You don't know me, but I worked for a few years with Jim, at Owens Corning in Information Systems, back in the 1980's. He was a joy to know, always lit up the aisle - a sort of grandpa to a bunch of snotty ultra geeks. We respected his thinking, his attention to detail, his ability to learn, and his guidance. Even though it was just a work setting, he left a nice impression on all of us - if any of us meet and talk about old times, we instantly talk about Jim Feak. Thanks for sharing him with us.
