I have known Jim for many years. Jim was the goalie for our hockey team, the Canadiens. Team picture was taken at Weston arena. Jim was wearing the "W". In later life I joined Kodak Canada where Jim worked in the HR department. His wife Pam, I met later in the Kodak Processing Lab.
I have only positive memories of any interactions we had. I knew that I could always count on Jim to help me deal with any issues, be they work related or not. He helped my wife Nina and I deal with with the severance when Kodak went into decline. Jim was the kind of person who enriched the lives of people around him. I want to say "Thank you Jim" and best wishes to Pam.
