He will be missed. I enjoyed meeting him during the Holy Sprite adventure and his council and advice online.

That=E2=80=99s sad news, Ron.  Thanks for posting.

I never got to meet Jim, but I enjoyed many email conversations with =
him, both on and off of =E2=80=9CSpridgets=E2=80=9D.  I had hoped to get =
to meet him, one day, but I guess that meeting has been postponed by a =
=E2=80=9Chigher authority=E2=80=9D.

I sure do hope he got to put a lot of miles on his Midget (a Pale =
Primrose, =E2=80=9968 model, as I recall) before he was called home.

That is sad to hear.  I enjoyed getting to meet him and Carolyn at the WIld
West OSHIT and the follow up weekend a couple of months later.  They are
now reunited.
