Gang-
A regular visitor here and a good friend since I was sent to Afghanistan back in the day has passed away. Big Bro Jim as he posts was not only a patriotic man but a warrior for justice. He will be missed. Please keep him and his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I always enjoyed his comments. Will certainly keep his family and friends in my prayers. Take good care, Maj. P!

He for sure said it like how he saw it! He didn't take crap off of anyone that is for sure, but he also was such a softy! He was wonderful to Taylor and to the many many MANY he sent care packages to. You never knew what you were going to get when that email came in and he made us laugh all the time, he will be greatly missed.

BBJ was one great American. He loved his family, his country and our military more than himself. Jim served this nation in the Marine Corps during the Viet Nam era. He was bound and determined that our deployed military would KNOW they were appreciated and loved.
His heart was bigger than any I know. He held each person he supported in their own special place in his heart.
There is a huge void in our world today with the passing of this great man. The dynamics of heaven must really have changed on Friday when Jim passed through the gates.
I miss you Jim!
