Jim was one of the most genuine men you will ever meet. He had a keen mind and would cut right to the meat of a problem. A sharp wit and a kind demeanor. He could lighten moments quickly . I am sad he is gone .

I looked forward to working with Jimmy when I was younger and working the spare board. Long nights on the railroad were a lot more fun when his distinctive laugh and sense of humor was around. We're all missing you Jimmy.
