Our thoughts and prayers are with Jim's family. We have always been so impressed with how close the McCormack family has been. They always rally around one another in the good times and the sad times. We appreciated so much talking with Jim. We learned a lot from Jim over the years and will miss him. Loved to hear his stories of times gone by.
