Karen Pottle wrote a sympathy message

“Condolences to the Sykes family. I did not know Jim personally; however, through his dear friend, Canadian author Donna Morrisey, I got to hear the stories and life accomplishments of this remarkable man. It is people like him who make you realize that talent is now history and one that deserves accolades for what he achieved. Thank you, Donna, for sharing your friend's life stories with us. Bravo, Jim; well done. Karen Pottle and George Hache”
