Bob Clift wrote a sympathy message

“My deepest sympathy to Jim's family. We were classmates in elementary & high school. Although we did not stay connected, I remember him as an intelligent, adventurous and kind person, as evidenced by his incredible obituary. My wife enjoyed talks with him at Stillwater high-school reunions and was intrigued by his rich experiences and varied careers. We will miss him and his stories. He added so much grace and goodness to the world and most certainly has earned his Heavenly rewards. Bob Clift”
