Jimmy was much older than I was and I did not know him well, but the one thing that made his loss so painful to the whole campus was that he was very much like the consummate big brother to us younger kids always kind and caring to all of us. He was looked up to and admired as one of the older guys who had earned the responsibilities and trust that few of the boys had. I was in the choir and remember the stunned silence and even tears shed at his funeral by "tough" boys.
Jimmy left a void on campus that was never really filled while I was there. Herb Pickard
