    Dear Sue, Debbie, Steve, David and your families, I am so sorry for your loss! Thank you for contacting me, Debbie! It meant a lot to me. I shared some good times with your Dad (my cousin). Please call next time you are in Minnesota. I wish I could be at Ft. Snelling with you all tomorrow. Do be safe and stay well!

  2. Jim and I worked together at Osmonics and he was a fine engineer, peer, and manager. We attended Hope in the late 1990s getting to know more about Jim. He coached my daughter for her English Grammar School exam in 1999. I shall always remember Jim!
