I worked for Jim at Kmart Headquarters in Apparel Store Operations in the early 90s. He was always the happiest when he had difficult challenges to work through. He wasn't afraid of anything. He loved to laugh and had a wonderful sense of humor. Everyone loved him. Rest in peace, Jim. You will be missed. Sincerely, Aimee Bond
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your loved ones. May Jim Rest In Peace.
Jim made me promise not to tell anyone that he hired me when he was a District Manager for Kmart in RI and MA in 1973.
I had a tremendous amount of respect for, and enjoyed working with him for 20 years.
I had tried numerous time over the last few year to contact him, to not avail. I am very sorry for his death and the loss to the family must be incredibly tough.
You have my deepest sympathies.
Our memories of Jim center around our “always fun” friendship and our “football “ friendship, which still continues through Mary. When we think of Jim, we remember all the Mona Shores games and Spirit Club activities we did together and our Spartan tailgates that were usually in downpours and ended with such events as repairing the neighbor’s tent that got bent in the wind. We’re sure Jim would be laughing over these memories.
We’re thinking of you, Mary, Jim and Jessi!
Love, Carla and John
