Very sorry Kelly and the kids. We are praying for you. Jim was a great man leading by example of helping others and with his generosity. From our memories, he was encouraging, thoughtful, and willing to help anyone. I pray that the supernatural power of God comforts you. Let us know if we can do anything please.

Most of my memories of Jim are professional in nature. I marveled at his disciplined mind, how he could look at a complex problem and immediately sort out all the chaff he called them rabbit trails to zero in on the important information or the critical path. Jim was the consumate multitasker as I’ve seen him on two phones at once fielding questions or getting information, preparing a bid, while at the same time burning CDs. He was certainly a force of nature, and I’ll miss him always.
