Jim was truly a fine fellow who will be missed. RIP ol' friend! I don't have a copy of that pic. Email if you can. Thanks, Jake Lamkins Billy Walker I've looked for it, but it seems to be lost in my non-ID photos. I've asked Jack "Beetle" Bailey for it. Beetle and I stay in touch. He’s a really good fellow!
