  I received this message from Gerry Such who received it from another former 
commission for the Blind worker, Kathy halligan.  I believe she got the word 
from Joe nemshak.  Here’s what she says.

  Jim Moore passed away
  I know most of you get the paper and may already know this, or it may not yet 
be
  in the paper.  But, for information's sake, I am passing what information 
around
  that I know.  Arlene was in contact with Joe and said that Jim passed away 
"very
  peacefully" yesterday afternoon.  He is now at Estes-Leadly downtown.  Joe 
has been
  asked to do the service.  The service will probably be Friday or Saturday, 
it's not
  yet know which, or if it will be at the funeral home.  Joe is going to let me 
know
  and I'm sure the paper will have this information, as well.  I just wanted to 
let
  his circle of retiree friends know.  Rest in peace, Jim ... and don't tax St 
Peter
  with all those old jokes!  We surely will miss you, your humor, and your 
stories
  and jokes.
  Kathy
