James Roy Whittaker
"I met Jim through my husband, they were both test techs at Collins radio, and lived together for many years. Jim organized yearly slide and video get togethers for many years, with a close knit group of geeky camera buffs who would share their trips and vacations on the big screen, intermixed with laughs, good food and great friendships. He was right there helping me out when a huge storm hit while my husband was dealing with his diagnosis and soon to be, promotion to Glory. Jim called and checked up on me regularly after my husband's passing. Jim was a good man that I was blessed to have known in my life. RIP Jim."
