Jim will be missed at the Pageant. He was one of the kindest cast members, always a pleasure to be around. He was a wonderful ‘El Cid’! My prayers go to his family.

I have been in men’s wardrobe, Pageant of the Masters, for several years and enjoyed working with Jim. We always were interested in his latest book and I loved to hear him tell us about his readings. I will always remember Jim as our El Cid…and his teasing about my “circus squares”. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
