    Yes Jim was one of the greats from my point of view; from the first time I ever met him back in the early 1970s he was always a friendly, cheerful high energy man and and was always especially friendly and kind to my father and brothers and myself, even when we were new, just bringing our game to Chicago. What an amazing life loving person, I will always have a smile on my face when I think of Jimmy Mitchell.
    to all the Mitchell family, God bless you guys, Bruce Rosenzweig
