He always held a passion for cars, and was a twenty-year member of the British 
Motoring Club - New Orleans. During his tenure with the club, he served ten 
years as a club officer and newsletter editor. He wrote technical articles for

survived by two sons and by his friends and fellow members of the British 
Motoring Club. Safety Fast Jim.
