Jim passed in July of 2015 he will be missed.  One of Jim's classmates posted this and thought it shoud be added.

He had a brilliant mind, wonderful sense of humor and a very big caring heart. He overcame the many obstacles life threw at him and capitalized on his wit and wisdom. Important people had him on speed dial. Jim was a behind the scene guy who made everyone else look good. Today along with his friends, a Governor and US Senator felt honored to give their the final goodbyes. Thanks Pat Campbell for being there and helping to represent our gang. RIP Jim Kneeland class of 72.
