Jim Griffith
My good friend Jim died today. We've known each other since college and that covers a lot of ground. Jim was a man of moral clarity and steadfast opinions who also loved to have a good time. Sitting at the bar, lifting his glass, and occasionally singing his Irish tunes is one way I choose to remember him.
I'm also going to remember how generous he was to me, and how much fun I had with Jim and Phyllis at their home in Wilmette.
Jim, Jean, Barb and I were a bridge foursome for many years. Barb kept track of all the scores. Jim was a winner. So, I'm going to ask her to hang on to them for awhile as we say goodbye.

Joan, it’s so hard to lose dear friends. I’m so glad you have such fond memories. I recall you speaking of Jim and your bridge group. Love, Camille
