Deepest sympathies to Jim’s family. We enjoyed the Weekend Wanderers camp-outs that we share with Jim. His enjoyed sharing his knowledge and fascination of the stars.
My deepest sympathies go out to Carol and the ones who shared their lives with Jim on a daily basis. He was a wonderful man and he will be missed. Sending love and prayers from Colorado.

The Raw family in the U.K. are both shocked and saddened to hear of the recent loss of Jim.
As total strangers, Jim and Carol welcomed us into their lovely home way back in 2001. Instant friendship and immense hospitality was the result. Magical memories of happier times. .
With our love to Carol and all the family at this time.
