Brenda,Jeff &Kent, I am so so sorry to hear about Jim💔 I have so many wonderful memories working with him at Karschs years ago. He was a patient man putting up with me, his Knick name for me was knothead🤣 I might have been a bit stubborn and vocal. He took it like a champ and was a wonderful boss and we had many laughs together. Sending many prayers and hugs to you all ❤️🙏
