I remember Jom as one of the early pioneers online. This is back in around 1995-1996, him and Bill Ackers might be the first two to have sites online? Wow... Jim made a lot of people happy, beautiful resort, and shared pictures of the day's catches and other shots. Maybe someday if I get to Arkansas, I'll have the pleasure of visiting. Jim, you will be missed!

Ohhhh, :((((((

I had the honor of calling Jim my friend. We traded pens for several years. On one road trip between MI and CA, I stopped for a night at his resort. We talked pens and stuff for hours. When it came time to check out the next morning, the desk clerk told me there was not a bill. That is the type of guy Jim was. He was an inspiration to the resort industry. He loved flying, his jeep trips out west, and making people smile!

Indeed, the saddest news that we share in pendom. 

 

wish there was some way we could post a wall of those we lost. 

 

maybe a brief bio of each person. 

 

I hate to think each person that departs us gets sort of forgotten about.

i live just a few miles from his resort and had many visits with Jim.  The one thing i learned from Jim is; like the pens but, love the people.

He will be missed.
