Jim was a wonderful and giving person and I am proud to call him my friend. We both wrote for there Gazette. He was the #1 member of the Narrow Gauge Preservation Foundation of which I am Executive Director and was a Master Model Railroader in the NMRA, of which I am President.
At Jim's request in 2016, I volunteered to help him dispose of his railroad materials in a way that would maximize his estate and stand ready to help if needed.
But above all, we will miss Jim immensely given his generous willingness to share his knowledge, time and expertise. I never met a better person and know he was so proud of his daughter and grand daughter. I am sending a card as well but wanted you to know that the entire modeling community mourns your loss as it was ours as well.
Take care,
Charlie Getz

I'm terribly saddened to hear about Jim's passing. He was always so gracious, humble and kind. He often invited me and my family to his home to see his magnificent model railroad. Jim was an incredible inspiration and mentor to other modelers like myself and will be terribly missed. My sincere condolences...
