“Jo Ann and family, I am deeply saddened to hear of Jim's passing. I worked at the NC State University Alumni Office as one of two Assistant Directors for ten years. (1985-1995) Two of those years that I was there, Jim was hired as an Interim Associate Director. I was thrilled to have such a man of integrity and faith as a coworker. He was also a great encourager to me, and the spiritual talks were such a blessing. We will see him again! Peace and grace to all. Steve Allen”
