Jim was the first mentor of my professional career that began with the Engineering Department of Flinders Shire Council. He gave me valuable advice and guidance that greatly helped further my engineering career. Jim and Sheila often kindly invited me to their home and treated me like one of their family. I do treasure this long lasting friendship with them. Jim will be remembered as a kind and knowledgeable boss and friend! With prayer and deepest sympathy to Sheila and family! From Andrew Chan
