[Vision2020] Jim LaFortune

[Art Deco]

What terrible news!

I saw Jim this summer at the summit of Paradise Point very early in the morning where he and a friend had bicycled.  He looked fine considering the extreme medical travails he had suffered.  

Jim contributed mightily to all non-motorized outdoors people in this area.  Besides authoring a wonderful trails guide, he put much time and effort into building and maintaining trails and other similar projects.  He always had a nice smile and was pleasant to work with and to talk to.

I hope some fitting memorial can be found, like officially naming one of his favorite trails after him.

  I understand that Jim LaFortune died early this a.m.  I am currently living out of the country and don't subscribe to any of the local papers, and I assume I won't be able to read a current obituary.  At the risk of sounding morbid, would someone be willing to post the URL or the obit when it becomes available?


  Thanks.
