    Diane, I can’t tell you how sorry I am to learn of Jim’s passing. He was way to young. I had the privilege of being Jim’s co-worker at McKesson where he was always efficient and a great help to all his co-workers. I also enjoyed his company at all the parties outside of McKesson. He will be sorely missed.
