The Tombs family has my sympathies. I worked with Jim for 10 years at Bolthouse Farms in Grant, MI. Delores, you probably don't remember me, but we would see each other annually at the Company Christmas dinner. Jim was always cheerful, and easy to work with. We mostly enjoyed our lunchtime bridge games with Sheldon and Bruce. May his memory be Eternal.
