Thanks for the post Tracy. Jim was a unique individual, but I always enjoyed talking with him. This is sad news indeed.

I was just thinking about Jim last month. I refinished some furniture for daughter in December and used a technique he had taught me years ago. Jim was a very good honest man, great woodworker and could also pluck a guitar exceptionally well. Always fun to talk to. He'll be missed.
