Jan and Mark Smith wrote a sympathy message

“In loving memory of James R. Kern, we send this little flame of light. Jim was a friend from our Landmark Forum days. We lovingly always referred to Jim as "Mr. Possibility". Jim had a very creative nature and a head full of great ideas. He would call us, excited to share what was next. His life with Piew was rich with simplicity and the practices of Buddhism. They both taught us so much. He is missed already. Sharing in your sorrow. With love and friendship. Jan and Mark”
