Condolences to all Jim's family & friends! He was an interesting and nice man. I worked many elections with Jim as an EXCELLENT "Inspector" - basically the site supervisor. Altho we belonged to different political parties, ALL of us enjoyed working with him, and trusted & respected his experience, knowledge, and professionalism, and he returned that respect to each of us. (Sadly, not always our experiences with other Inspectors.) We were all sad when he decided to retire from that position. Rest in Peace - you ARE missed by many, & for many reasons.

Jim was a great employee and friend at Ace Hardware. He was always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. He will be greatly missed.
