    I had the pleasure of working with Jim at Mizzou. He always had a smile on his face and always said something to make me laugh. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

    I miss my big brother. It’s been hard and simultaneously wonderful to walk through my memories of him over the weekend. Looking forward to the folks in his life at memorial service.

    Just wanted to say again how much I will miss Jim. Our talks at Houlihans were either comical or philosophical.He was probably the only person that when we were sitting alone who really understood where I was coming from and hope I can be as much as an inspiration to others as he was to me.
