“Chuck and I were deeply saddened to learn of Jim’s passing. We were fortunate to have interacted with him over the course of many years. He will be remembered for his kind and gentle spirit, his big heart and enormous generosity, his love of family, friends, and the Roosevelt Community. His dedication to RU and its students and faculty was steadfast. In difficult times he remained an optimist and never lost his sense of humor. We were blessed to have known him. To Linda, our deepest sympathy.”
