John Feaster wrote a sympathy message

“We're so sorry to hear of jim's passing. He was a tremendous athlete and a skilled craftsman. I was lucky to get to know him and be his friend in high school, when we were halfbacks together in the backfield of the mighty riverdale rams! He was fast, i was slow. A devastating combination. Condolences to carol kay, our neighbor from just down the road and up the lane. John & sue feaster.”
