You have often given us very small snippets. May we hear about him, and join you in your love for him? Unless it's too hard to write about?

When you are ready and happy that it expresses all you want to say properly, then simply send it.

I imagine a number of other people would also like to know more about him.

One day you may decide to post your memories in order that the world may see him, too. Until then, may people ask you for an email about him here?

That would be an honor .though I question my ability to properly tell that story..I am afraid here-afraid that I will lose his memory thou I sometimes doubt that,as his memory has become the fabric of my heart and spirit.The hope and dreams that we shared,the many hours designing rocketships that could carry us both to awsome adventures.The strength that Jim gave me to stand up to a high school population that was very unaccepting in the 50s.His quiet song to me that we are not alone.I can still hear his gentle voice as I type.When I close my eyes at night I see his face and ask WHY? I was 17 when I lost him.Hatered,bigotry and ignorance took that sweet boy-in school,the same kind of youth made our lives a living hell-fit into our mould or we will torment you-.That has not changed here...rob

Tell it from your heart. Let him speak through your fingers on the keyboard, and see through your eyes as you type.
