It was so good that Dean and I got to be with him on our last visit to Memphis. He was cheerful and interested in us. Dean was quiet when I told him about “Chief’s” passing and said that he was so glad that he got to be with him at that time.Condolences and sympathy to all of you in your loss,Aunt Laura
Larry, that is wonderful to hear from someone who knew Dad that long ago at the paper! I’m so glad you posted this.
I’m sorry to hear of Jimmy’s passing. He was a gentlemen and fine man.It was an honor to know him. I had known Jimmy since the mid 50’s when he was my district manager while I was delivering newspapers.I remember him well when he went into the old Lowenstein’s building around 1959. Ran into him occasionally thru the mid 90’s.Larry Drannon
