Long time GB Forum member kimi passed away
Last night I discovered that kimi (James McBroom) passed away on September 2, 2021. He was a special friend on and off the forums even though we were only able to meet in person one time when he and his wife Barb visited us here at our home. This was very sad and unexpected news!
I know James’ wife Barb and son Joel would appreciate your prayers.
Here is a link to his obituary.

I didn't know Kimi except on the forums.. He was good member of these forums. Insightful, intelligent, and non argumentative. The forum is less without him.

Sad news. I loved his contributions to this forum and had planned to meet up with him at some point when I lived over on the wet side, but never got my act together to do it. My prayers are with his family. Like SCOUT5 says above: insightful, intelligent, and non-argumentative. I will miss his participation here very much. We are losing some good folks lately.

he told us about his 'handle' here.....when he met Barb in Korea she couldn't pronounce the 'J' in Jimmy.......so it became 'Kimi'

Sad news indeed. I was wondering why he wasn't posting with college football in full swing.
RIP James, prayers for the family.

Very sad news indeed. Kimi shared much with us here his vast knowledge of US history and helped me get started setting up my family tree. I miss him already but know he is in a better place.
My prayers and condolences go out to his family.
