My deepest condolences to Jim's surviving family for your loss. Jim really was a great story teller and could do this trick where he would break hay wire with his bare hands and then get others to try but no one would ever be able to do it. He would always say it was his strength and that could have been true, he had hands like baseball mitts. I still think there was some kind of trick though because no one else could ever do it. Good to have know you Jim.
I had worked with Big Jim at Baker Hughes in Alberta and the last i saw him was around 8 yrs ago. He was one of the nicest guys i have ever worked with. Sorry to hear that he is past on.
