    Jimmy V, So sad you left so soon & suddenly. Great to know this kind man since 1993, he was a customer, friend & also a vendor. We have shared lots a First Aid information with each other, Xmas candy and conversations. I still have my special pens (Roehampton Medical) & my salad bowl I received last time I saw him at a safety show in San Diego. He will be missed for sure by many. My thought & prayers going out to the family, I will light another candle tonight.
    XO Mr. Angel in the sky.

    I had the pleasure of meting Jim through are contract with the City of Rochester at local R-Centers and GVP Sports Complex. Jim was always helpful, professional, friendly and immediate to our needs. He will be sorely missed, and we are thankful for the service he provided throughout the years.
