I first met Jim and Irene upon moving to Kibbutz Ketura in 1997. It was a pleasure to get to know Neil's father and Yehoshua's grandfather, and to watch him become grandfather to Peri, Tani and Razi. Over the years I had the privilege to talk to and learn from this wise, loving, kind and humble man. Irene, Neil, Sharon and family - thank you for letting me share a wonderful parent and grandparent with you. I join you in your sorrow.

Jim was a special person. He always had a kind word for everyone and had a great sense of humor. He was so proud of his children and grandchildren who gave him much job.
