I'm so sorry. I loved getting my pictures taken by you. I wish I known that you died earlier, I now just figured out. I'm so sorry. You were such a great man. Thank you for taking my pictures when I younger by my dad's shop.

I am so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I knew him as Rupert on Pentax forums. His posts always made me smile. We shared a love of squirrels and I can't look at a squirrel without thinking of him, Otis and his army of squirrels. Take care, Stevi, Winnipeg, Canada

I've enjoyed his posts as "Rupert" on Pentax Forums. In person, he and his wife were some of the sweetest people I've ever met. Our deepest condolences to Gail and the rest of his family. He will be so missed.

Farewell "Rupert", thank you for many fun and interesting hours on the Pentax forum. My sincere thoughts go out to Jim's family and loved ones.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

"Rupert" and I shared stories, adventures, photos and opinions for many a year on Pentax Forums. I'll miss him dearly. My sympathy goes out to "Mrs. Rupert" and Rupert's family.

I only new Jim for a few years on Pentax Forums as Rupert, but in that time he was a great friend with many fun and interesting posts. I offer my condolences to his family, and Gail who was lucky to have such a kind man for a husband. Unfortunatley everybody's time must come. Good bye Rupert, you will be greatly missed.

I am sad. I will miss my Texan friend. But, I shall not dwell on my grief, for that would be selfish. Rather, I will celebrate Jim’s life, and take pride in having had such a great man as a friend. Rest well my friend, and enjoy your reward.

A sad goodbye to my old friend from the Pentax Forum. My prayers are with Jim's family as they mourn his loss. I will miss his motorcycle stories from the old days and especially his wonderful photographs.

To Gail, your sons, Jim's mother and your wider family: Please accept both Annie and my most sincere condolences on the passing of Jim. During these short years that we became friends, speaking with Jim was always a delight. He was a kind and generous man that will be sorely missed by everyone who have had the privilege to know him. Jim touched many people and through his wonderful photography he shared with us his love for squirrels and other animals. As a moderator on Pentax Forums it was an honour to get to know Jim a little bit and get to share in his love for photography, and through that see his love for his family and care for others. I will miss our talks on all manner of subjects, especially politics. We think of you all during this difficult time, but know that Jim has made a difference to many, all over this little blue ball we call home. Most sincerely, Mark and Annie
