My sincere condolensces to James Farmer’s family on the loss of their wonderful patriarch. I only met Jim in the twilite of his life, but  always looked forward to seeing him and visiting  with him, and deeply respected and admired him.  He always had a smile for me. I am glad his great-grandchildren got to meet Jim; they are so young they may not remember but I will help to make sure they know what a true American hero he was. May he rest in everlasting peace and be reunited with his beloved Nell.
