Jim and I were just out of college; working together, traveling NYS, and meeting hospital executives. Jim was a true professional; always well dressed, responsible, accountable, and personable. Jim was also fun to be with, he always had a wit about him. I have to say I missed Jim when he moved to PA. However, I knew that Jim's personal traits would make his career blossom wherever he was. Jim turned out as I suspected, a successful man, an entrepreneur, and a loving husband to Bonnie. I am sure Jim made many friends in PA that had the opportunity to know him. I envy these friends. I am saddened by Jims loss to this world and my sympathy to Bonnie, Jims family, and Jims friends. I console myself knowing that I had the wonderful experience of knowing Jim Coppock and we will meet again someday in heaven.
