Jim served with distinction as presiding officer of each of the Ann Arbor York Rite bodies and was received as a Knight of the York Cross of Honour in recognition of his service to the York Rite.

Jim was a man defined by his fervency, zeal, compassion, and counsel. His dedication to our craft was undoubtable and the impact he had on his brothers is immeasurable. He will be sorely missed.
