I'm devastated. Jim was an inspiration to me for my entire career. His influence is huge and profound. He'll be remembered for his warm, fun-loving personality, truly innovative thinking, and bringing people together. Rest in Gaia, Jim, you will be missed

I have been and Ed Is my next door neighbor. 85 year old dude lived his whole life on the block, had to close the bar because the city of New Orleans charged him for his licenses renewal for 2022 but has not issued it yet. He’s a great guy and could seriously use legal $ help.
