    To ALL of Jims family I want to send my deepest sympathies on your loss.You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this time. I worked with Jimmy in the same office in the Tin Mill and on the same turn at Weirton Steel, and we were very good friends. We even went out a few times,and I valued his friendship very much. I wish there would of been something, so that I could of seen him one last time, and paid my respects.
