So sorry to hear about Jim. He was such a kind and generous person. My brother, Philip, used to work for him when Jim was in the tobacco-growing industry, and that's where I was introduced to him. I think I only lasted one week on the tobacco farm, but I still kept in touch with him, especially when he started his Chip Nut production. At least twice a year, on our way from our home in Newark, Delaware, US to visit friends in London, we had to stop by his store in Simcoe to get our supply of Chip Nuts and other "essentials." Jim was always so kind - he always gave us a generous discount on our order. May he rest in peace.
