Corvette Jim
Corvette Jim was not a member of this forum. I am, have been for quite some time, but don't post much. He was a co-worker of mine, a happy guy, great sense of humor, huge heart. He died-too young- of lung cancer today. He had just purchased an '08 Atomic Orange 'Vert about 6 months ago. I believe he purchased it because it was his "last hurrah", something he had always dreamed of. He had asked me numerous questions about my '05 Coupe before he made the purchase. Not once did he mention or did we talk about his condition. He loved that car so much- had started modd'ing it and had driven it in several parades before his passing. That's why I started calling him Corvette Jim. RIP, Corvette Jim...

Reading a story like this always makes me think of so many things about my life and those that I know. Jims passing is so very sad, but I'm glad He got to live out one of his dreams. It makes me ask why people like him that make this world a better place to live, pass on and leave behind so many that that bring nothing but pain and heartache to the world 
? I don't post here very often because of the memories of lost loved ones and my best friend that has brain cancer and I'll lose him before long.
Sorry for the loved ones that must miss Jim so much and the loss of a co-worker that you must have cared for a great deal.
