Jim Ertel - ten years past


Ten years ago at the end of December my school friend Jim (David James) Ertel and general partner in "crime" passed away aged just 53. Each year since I have been posting something here to remember the loss of my photo buddy. This year my mother (90) died just before Christmas a double whammy as Jim was the "second son" in our family.

Jim with Mum and Dad on the occasion of mums 80th - he flew over from Brisbane as a surprise.

I worked with Jim Ertel at Mitsui Computers in Brisbane, many years ago. He was a genuinely lovely person to work with. What a great loss
