Just FYI, Jim let very few people know about his cancer and prognosis and requested it be kept confidential. I didn't ask why, I just honored his wishes.

I knew he had told his son Mike to call me (l was Steve Sack on his cell, he was Jimmy Cajun on mine) when he passed. When my cell rang early this morning I thought it was Jim. He was one of the truly good guys.

I knew early on as well. I understood his reasoning. After going through cancer treatment myself early this summer. He will truly be missed. We had some great conversations over the years. He gave me some good perspective while going through my divorce many years ago. RIP my brother. Hope we meet up one day.

I'm so sorry to hear this. He was a great guy. I knew this was coming, but I was hoping it wouldn't be this soon.

We always want another hour, another day, another year, for our loved ones who pass too soon. Don't know how old Jimmy was, but he was far too young to go.

Strats reeled me in a couple years ago when every thread was an all out war of words. He sent me a pm and said "don't be an ahole, there's enough of us here already. Don't take it so serious" That put a new perspective on posting here and that's when I decided it wasn't necessary to be an adversary (or insert your own word) all the time.

Thanks strat.

That was a running joke for many years. He did nothing to discourage it.

Bro D, I typed all kinds of "feelings and stuff" and it all disappeared! Sorry brother. Godspeed brother Jim <heart emoji>

Goodnight brothers and sisters May you walk with God.

Morning all.

Need to make a run to the grocery store this morning. We are out of bacon and breakfast sausages.
