We're all feeling the loss of our amazing friend and colleague, Jim. He truly was a bright light in our lives, always ready to share a laugh and spread joy.&nbsp;&nbsp;Following a private service, his family and friends are hosting a farewell gathering in the spirit of Jim's love of gathering together for a good meal. We hope you can join us to remember Jim and honor the unique and generous person that made him so unforgettable. &nbsp;&nbsp;This gathering will be reception style - opening at 5:00, with remarks scheduled for 6:00 pm. Please come when you can and stay as long as you want. Food and beverages are provided.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you plan to attend in person, please RSVP by February 1.
