I regret to inform you all that Jim died this afternoon. His son says it
was congestive heart failure which is as good a way as any to describe
dying of old age. He was still coming to seminar last fall and celebrated
his 91st birthday in December in pretty good shape, but has been gradually
going downhill since. I don't believe he came to the office since late
fall. He had a good run.
Michael
