Jimmy died in Buriram, Thailand, earlier this year. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
I was finally able to locate someone who confirmed he had passed.
I had been in touch with him from time to time after he shared with me in mid-2014 that he had lung cancer. I last heard from him in November, at which point he told me the cancer was now at Stage 4, and it was clear there was no treatment possible, and that he anticipated dying in a month or two:
"I know approximately when I will die and am amazed at the things I think about knowing the end is near."
He is survived by wife, Pu; they do not have children. I do not know much about Jimmy's life., or whether he has any children. Our e-mail contacts were infrequent, and mainly about technical things and expat life, and our experiences with cancer.
yours, Bill

Thanks for the update Bill. I last heard from him about the same time and had wrote him but he didn't answer.
Last email I got said he had about 6mos. to live and he was starting to falter then.
We became pretty good friends and he had invited me to come see him in Thailand when he first retired and now wished I would have had the time and money to go.
I don't think he had any children and he never talked much about family so I can't speak on that.
I miss his emails and hope he can rest in peace.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Can you fold paper more than 7 times with hydraulic press - YouTube[^]
Watch until the end. I bet you won't expect what happens!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

How much do you owe me?
By the way, the myth that you can't fold a piece of paper more than 7 times has already been comprehensively busted by the busters of myths that I mentioned only yesterday. They achieved 11 using a piece of paper the size of a football field with the possibility that an even larger piece would make more possible yet to be explored.
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!
