He especially enjoyed spending time and joking with family and friends. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. As his long-time friend, Dean Adams, had eloquently written about Jim: If there is a goodbye to be said it would not be understood by anyone but him. “I think we’re all bozos on this bus.” In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the American Heart Association, in his name.
