Christina Eftimiou wrote a sympathy message

“We are so incredibly shocked and saddened to hear of Jim's passing. We had the fortune of getting to know Jim through St. Philip Greek Orthodox Church and he was always such a kind and generous man who loved to share his experiences, stories, humor, and beautiful artwork with our family. He was always with a funny quote or joke for our son Alexander and truly made him feel like the greatest kid in the room; a genuinely uplifting and caring man. Our deepest condolences to Joan and the entire family”
