Cruising around the Facebook and I discover that he and his wife both passed?

Mind officially blown.

I was really dreading hearing this news.

James randomly stopped returning our emails at the beginning of January, and I didn't have any other way of getting in touch.

He will be sorely missed.

Per Facebook, the circumstances are most bizarre.  I will not speculate, but his sister-in-law posted of his passing January 18.
