Travel well and rest in peace Jallen. We weren't friends and very seldom had conversations but I will miss your advice, observations and contributions. You set a standard and stood a watch that won't easily be met or filled ~~~

I remember a few years ago reading a post by Para saying something like 'it's good to see Jallen posting again' that was the first time I remember reading one of his post.
He will be missed and he was a big part of what makes this forum so special.

This is a rough one. Frown

I hope that I will go out with a fraction of the dignity that this man showed.

RIP Sir.

I knew this was coming. We all did. Perhaps he'll be there to welcome me when it's my turn to pass through the veil. I sure hope so.

God bless you, brother, and grant your loved ones peace.

To use the sentiments from a beloved story of friendship:

It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer. Jallen was both.

Never met the man. No idea what he looks like. But the news saddens me deeply. I guess thats a nice legacy right there. Never met him, really don't know him.....But I will miss him.

A good man, we all knew him from here, but I'll say that Jim was a great member at QRZ and was most helpful giving his advice from over 50 years as a Ham Radio operator. He helped many more people than you know.

I admire the way he lived out and faced his health condition with grace and dignity, always sharing himself up until the end.

I met Jim in person almost 12 years ago at a Bruce Gray class in San Diego. Enjoyed talking with him then, and have had email conversations with him on occasion.

I'm hoping that there is a message from him in an envelope waiting to be posted.

May he rest in internal peace. We are all better because of his wit & wisdom on the forum. He will be missed. Frown

I will surly miss him, so will everyone I expect.
I'm shaken and I never knew him!
I have a bottle of Duckhorn wine I bought after reading his suggestion, I have had it for several years looking for a appropriate time to uncorn it, this seems like that time, to his memory!
