Scott May wrote a sympathy message

“The Mid-South has lost a real leader and I have lost a mentor. It would take pages for me to list all the kindness Jim bestowed on me over the years, and I know it was not deserved. The list of our hunting adventures together would fill a book. I was truly blessed to call Jim "friend." You are in my prayer; see you at the service. Scott F. May, Sr.”
