    Wow, that's tough.

    He popped into an online WTF piano party that @axtremus facilitated during COVID. OT literally flashed on the screen for like 10 seconds and then was gone.

    Please let his wife (piqaboo?) know that I wish her strength.

        His wife just shared this in Facebook. She shared it to his feed so the idea was to let his friends know, so I’m reposting it here.

        @jon-nyc Thanks for posting this, I'm just now seeing it on FB. I had wondered why he seemed to fade away. 😞

          That's a shame.

                I'm sorry to hear that.

                I sometimes think of people I knew and have met on the various forums over the years. Then, I wonder where many of them are now.

                  He introduced me to WTF and I will always be grateful.

                    I think Jim was the first person I met in person from any of these forms. we got together when I was down in San Diego on business, it must’ve been more than 20 years ago. He was also at a piano party that Kenny threw about that same time.

                    very sad news.

                        I was just thinking of him last week - and wondering why he hadn't been posting. He always seemed very outgoing - and asked if I traveled to SD to stop in. He has a lovely family - sad.
