DougC 2,641 #30 Posted June 24, 2018 Our 'Rat Pack' Skype group will never be the same without you Jimmy. You brought the light and the laughter to our group with your witty banter even after your injury. I have missed you here on the forum for many months as have everyone here. Rest in Peace Jim. I'm proud to have had the opportunity to get to know you. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 38,842 #32 Posted June 24, 2018 Life is full of ironies. Jim passed away during the big show. His signature was leave them laughing. I was driving today listening to a comedy channel. A song came on by Cledus T Judd called " Hope to leave you laughing" ( when the final curtain falls) It was the perfect song for Jim. I remember when he first got sick and we talked several times on the phone. I would send him stuff time to time hoping to get a chuckle out of him. You will be missed Jim. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikesRJ 551 #34 Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) JimD, just heard the sad news at the Big Show this weekend when I asked @stevasaurus about you. You were a friend, a cohort, and a partner in crime to keeping poor @nylyon on his toes. I’ll never forget all the pranks we set up with the other three partners. RIP my friend, till we meet again at the Big Show upstairs. =S= Edited June 25, 2018 by MikesRJ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 22,229 #36 Posted June 25, 2018 As many know on this site, Jim and I were partners in Shenanigans. We would talk all night or day on Skype and laugh like crazy. Chris and I would stop at Jim's on the way home from the show a few times and spend time together. I am missing my good friend, but he lived a good life and had many friends. Some of his high school classmates have just recently started getting together for coffee about once a week and Jim was thrilled about that. He was not done having a good time. I just hope he was not in pain during the end. My prayers to Karen and his family. Rest in Piece Jim. I love you man. from the Big Show 2010 CAPTION THIS!!! 7 3 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
