Jim was always a great guy. I am not surprised that his life in England was one of giving back and enjoying life. He will be missed on both sides of the Pond.

I have fond childhood memories of James. I had often walked past his house on the Southside and was enthralled whenever I heard his name called at the Blue Streak football games. I send my condolences to the Boos family.
