I learned of Jim's passing today and feel heartbroken for his family and anybody he called a friend. I lost my mama, Susie Daniel, a little more than a year ago. Although she and Jim had been acquainted for much longer, I only came to know him since her passing. I appreciated his wise advice and took comfort in the familiar stories he shared with me regarding my mom. I know in just this short amount of time, I and my daughter, Katie, leaned on and trusted him just as my mom had for many years before. I believe he was a truly a Godsend to her and to us. I pray those who dearly loved him receive peace and strength as they face the world without his kindness and love. We will certainly miss such a good man.
