Your father reached out to me these past 10 years and my life will never be the same. Also, thank you for sharing your toys with Charlie and Abe when we visited on Halloween. Love David, Robin, Charlie, and Abe Wright
I'm an old friend of Barb's and of Jim's, too. These testimonials are incredible. He was an inspiration to everyone he met, and will be terribly missed....
The world will not be the same without Jim. He was my Bucknell roommate during his junior year. What a positive, upbeat, optimistic person! Jim always saw the good in people and all the time I knew Jim I never heard a negative comment about anyone. Jim was one of the most active, positive, involved, sincere people I knew at Bucknell. He was active in academics, athletics, extracurriculars and just about everything else. I was so sorry to hear a few years back about his diagnosis but knew that if anyone could beat it with attitude and outlook alone it would be Jim. I am so happy to hear that he was fortunate to experience the joys of marriage and fatherhood. Jim, you were a great person, the world will miss your energy and positive attitude, and every time we think of you we will smile. We will not forget you. -- Brian Calistri, Bucknell '84.
Jim, go in peace, you will never be forgotten. You will continue to be an inspiration for all of us. It was an honor to know you and ride with you. My prayers are with your family.
Jim, Your journey is quite inspiring. Your example is one of true courage and heroism. Thanks for sharing your experiences with others. Keep up the good fight.
