Sorry to hear about Jim. I worked with him at both Massey and CDS. In fact when Massey was bought out, Jim, myself, and one other person were the only 3 left in the IT department till the bitter end. We had many good times together. Roy Shafer

I was sorry to read of Jim's passing -- I was at North High with Jim and have fond memories of our high-school years. He will be missed by his former classmates.
