I've tried this twice before with no luck of posting. So I'm going to incorporate two Jim stories at once. On several occasions Jim and I would plan sales meetings in Florida. I'm telling these stories because Jim would do the same on me for a good laugh. Jim had a great laugh! On the first occasion I took Jim to the " World Famous Ted Peters smoked fish House". Jim was not one for fish, he wanted a peace of burnt meat. He kept the paper place mat to remind me, never again! He remembered Ted Peters and just had to rag me about smoked fish. Another time we were having a meeting at the Adams Mark Hotel on Clearwater Beach. After finishing our planning and having a couple of beers, we went to dinner. Once again burnt beef was his choice. Being the conservative one, Jim asked to stop for some beer to take back to the hotel. I stopped and got some fresh shrimp and beer. With our boss Dan K. Jim started with some beer. Jim was so amazed at the Sea Gulls flying outside our hotel window. Somehow, Jim got the idea to feed the Sea Gull some fresh shrimp. Guess what, Jim had a time feeding Sea Gulls out the 12th story window, of the Adams Mark Hotel. All the Sea Gull survived. I cannot feel sad for Jim's passing. I must remember the good times and laugh. I'll always miss you Jim, your are my friend!!!!! My prayers for the family.
