Jimmy was a really nice person.  What a shame to lose him.

The last time I saw Jimmy was 1968, and we were both in uniform. We happened to be on the same flight from Baltimore to Charlotte, both returning home for Christmas. He was a midshipman at the Naval Academy; I was a seaman at school in Bainbridge. It one of those strange coincidences, with a happy, brief greeting in the aisle before taking our separate seats, and later, going our separate ways.

I remember when my parents told me about his death in 1981, such a promising life cut short. Whenever I think of him now, I remember the greeting on the plane. That, and his ninth-grade science project, an atomic cloud chamber, which was so very cool.
