Jim was truly one of my best friends, we met at San Jose State in late 1970's and we were close from then on. He was always fun to be with and we shared many great times skiing, riding dirt and street bikes and just hanging around the BBQ where he always created the best tasting Teriyaki known to man... I was lucky enough to have known Jimbo for almost 40 years. I miss and love you Buddy.

Very sad to read about Jim's passing.  He put up one heck of a fight.  Another side of Jim that many did not know is that he did some critical work to support the United States Government in the mission to stop crime and terrorism.  He put in extra hours and provided great support to the United States.  I salute you Jim and thank you for your great support.

Just heard the very sad news today of Jim's passing. I worked with him on a couple of occasions so had some lengthy talks with him. I'm honored to been able to know him and to have worked with him. To a better place for sure.
