Jim was in my kindergarten class at Fernway School and we remained classmates until graduation in 1961.  I remember his mom picking me up for school events when we were youngsters.  Jim was kind, thoughtful, witty,
and  bright.  I bumped into him right after he graduated from Ohio Wesleyan.  We were in the parking lot of the main library on Lee Road.  All of Jim's qualities as a child were now even more evident and refined.  I wanted to keep up with him in the future but, alas, "the best laid plans...". I have thought of him many times in the intervening years and I now pay tribute to his memory.  He made an indelible impression on me because of his humanity and decency.  Rest In Peace.
