I am very, very sorry to hear this. Jim added a hell of a lot to this board with his wit, intelligence and ability to rile up the masses!
Best of luck to him and to you and your entire family. We'll continue to pray that he returns to give everyone more trouble than they can handle once again. [Reply]
I am truly sorry to read that.
I’ve always thought of Jim as a great person and have sought his advice a couple of times off the board for various personal issues because I valued his opinion.
Prayers to you and your family. [Reply]
As many of you know my Dad (Logical) has been in the hospital since January. He has been fighting a bunch of different problems, and it looked like he was going to beat it, and make it home. Unfortunately, in the past week things took a real turn for the worse. It is my understanding that he has at most two weeks left, but from what I can see myself, it probably won't be that long.
I know he really valued this board and a lot of the people on it. I wanted you all to know that he may of been a person that liked to stir things up, but he is one of the most caring people that this world has ever had to offer. He helped raise my sisters and I to be strong, loving, and intelligent people.
In these past few months, he has again found the Lord, and I strongly believe it is simply God calling him home. Please remember him for the good times, and do not judge him to harshly for the times he gave any of you heck.
He is my father, and a great man.
Thank You,
James
The next time you see your father please tell him this board valued him as much as he valued it. I tell you with all sincerity that he will be dearly missed. [Reply]

Jim and I battled over the years and at one time he was my least favorite poster on here. In the last few years, I saw a change in him that I think allowed us to know more of the wonderful person that you and your family surely knew well. He went from being one of my least favorite people here to one of my most favorite.
I'm sad to hear what is not unexpected news. It has been a loss to this community to have Jim away. I can't imagine the pain you are dealing with, but I am glad that you are your family appear to be well suited to cope with the grief of your (and our) impending loss.
