    I found a friend in Jim when we both started at indigo. He taught me all about the mechanics of printing presses as I was just an engineer. We stayed in touch till almost the end . He was quiet but thoughtful guy and a very loyal friend, always wondering how you were and when I almost passed away here was on phone to me to keep my spirits up. So be in peace Jim you will always be in my and my wife’s thoughts
