We will miss you Exece, Jim Conroy

It saddens me to say that today I found out that a local friend and collector, Jim Conroy, passed away in January. You might remember him as Exece. He was a super nice guy who loved his wife and diecast and photographing trains. I am honored to have met him in person and see his passions.

i wont forget you man


Exece

Pierre,

I am truly sorry for your loss. I want to say that I understand what you’re going through. But I also think you’ll get through it better than you are probably giving yourself credit for right now in the midst of the emotional turmoil. Why do I know this? Because you are doing it for the right reasons. And throughout my own personal losses, and those of others I have known, I can’t say that I have ever heard of someone calling on a friend as you have been called on now. Usually those tasks fall on a family member. I can only say that your involvement here speaks of respect that is beyond words. Your friend and his wife obviously trust and care about you in a profound way. And that’s an honor, mister. An honor that speaks of something they see in your character.

Just be true to yourself and follow through with whatever your heart tells you is right. It has obviously been a good guide for you so far, or you wouldn’t have known such friends. And I think I can speak for all your diecast buds in moments like this and say we are all proud to know you. If you need to talk, feel free to send me an email, or call me.

Best,
Robert

I don't believe I knew Exece, but I am sad to hear of a fellow collector's passing

Robert....that was quite eloquent and heartfelt.
