Jim looks out of character without his trademark smile, but in this picture, he’s actually “in character” for a play at Wingate Baptist Church. This is the smiling Jim we’ll all remember.
“JIM WAS A FRIEND to everyone he met. He was always willing to help you in any way that he could. He put up a courageous fight to the end and will be truly missed.” Carol Courtney Program Director, Surgical Technology Remembering Jim “I SPENT VERY LITTLE TIME with Jim during my time at SPCC. From my perspective, he was a dedicated employee who demonstrated a respectful, friendly attitude toward others and always seemed to have a smile on his face. One plus: he never complained about TaskStream! I worked with him a couple of times to tweak his department's outcomes and to show him how to use TaskStream for documenting outcomes assessment. He was very easy to work with and never reflected any frustration as we worked through it. “I never heard any criticism or negative words spoken about Jim from others, which I think is very telling. I thought he did a lovely job with The Insider and always enjoyed reading it. “I remember when Jim asked me in the late Fall semester 2011 if I would be interested in teaching anything for Free College Day. At first I told him I would consider it. But as the deadline for submission of the SACS Compliance Certification kept creeping closer and closer (March 2012), I realized I would not live through the Spring semester if I added leading a workshop to finishing the SACS report on time. So I knew I had to let him know I would be unable to comply with his request. I was so nervous about telling him that and felt very reluctant to do so. But I finally approached him and had the discussion. I didn't know him well and I wasn't sure how he would take it. He was incredibly kind and understanding. He didn't try to make me feel guilty in any way. That meant so much to me as I felt a great deal of pressure and stress during that time. “I was just getting to know Jim a little bit as a member of the Institutional Advancement Division. It is heartbreaking that I was unable to get to know him better. However, I think anyone, including me, who interacted with him was better off for it. From what I experienced, he was a kind and gentle soul.” Jill Millard Assistant Vice President, Planning and Institutional Effectiveness “THINKING BACK OVER my few years here with SPCC, I've worked with Jim in the following way: One of my fondest memories of Jim as a new employee was having a love for trivia. I submitted my answer to the Brain Teaser question in the February 2011 edition of The Insider. Lo and behold I actually answered ‘How can you add eight 8's to get the number 1,000 correctly?’ and won my very own SPCC apron. Jim was really accommodating in working around my schedule to get my photo taken. His kind spirit and gentle heart will be truly missed! Trinisha Dean Smart Start Program Director
