I have very sad news today. Jim Bach died at home this morning. He had been under the weather, had a fit full night, finally fell asleep, Fran found him this morning.
Many of us know Jim as person who not only was exceedingly good at his job, but an advocate for all beekeepers. He's the only person I've ever seen always use two hive tools so he didn't have to pass his hands over the frames, which he felt increased frequency of bee stings. I know well that his superiors always wanted him to spend more time at a desk, but he was only truly happy when in a beeyard, particularly if he could teach someone a bit about bees.
I for one will miss him as a colleague and a friend.
