I absolutely have NO words for what I'm seeing here. Jim and I played ball, hunted, curled, and did HUNDREDS of things together when I lived in Hibbing. Between Jimmy, Norm, Rick, and me, the 4 of us were pretty much joined at the hip for many years. I am SO sorry for your loss, and if there was any way I could be there for the service I would be. For many years he was my best friend and his passing has torn a hole in my heart. He was a good man and will be missed.
