Jim was a good guy. I went to high school with him at LTHS. Many of the kids were intimidated by him because he was very muscular and big. He was incredibly strong. I befriended him during lunch at the cafeteria. Jim was very bright and had an outstanding ability to read people. I liked him.

Fran, My heart goes out to you and your family. Jim was my buddy, and good friend. We had a blast goofing off in gymnastics. I will always remember the both of you and all the good times we had. Jimbo- you know who this is.
