Oh well. Yes, it was a wonderful memorial. I've been wanting to post about it in GD, but just haven't been able to pull all my thoughts together yet.

As for all the tributes on DU - Sybylla printed out that whole thread and gave it to his wife. When Carla was giving her eulogy, she brought that up and said that it was really wonderful to read how so many people loved and cared about Jim here on DU, and she thanked us all.
