LF,
I'm sure that writing these things was very difficult, even a year later. Thank you SO much for sharing so that we can begin to grasp what happened.
"Legacy" is a word that is thrown around far too much by the wrong people today, in my opinion. However, Jim left an amazing legacy when he passed on. The people he touched are numerous! He sparked betterment of the sport to many people, shared his passion for the outdoors and everything fly fishing, and was a genuine joy to talk to on the bulletin board. When folks speak of "leaving a legacy", look no further than Castwell himself.

Hugs,
Zac
