William P Parker wrote a sympathy message

“Ellen and family, Sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I remember the good times with "Jimmy" and know he talking with the past "tar heels" in heaven. He will have to coach 'em up hard for them to be respectable. I think the last time I saw Jim was at the "Dean Dome" doing what he loved best--cheering the Heels. Gail says she will miss his wit, smile and his dancing moves. We are praying for you. God has a plan. Warmly, Pat and Gail”
