Subject: condolences to you and Jim's family
Dear Meteorite_List, friends, and family of Jim Kriegh,
I am so sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was a wonderful person
who will be greatly missed by many. We were especially fortunate
here at the University of Arizona to have had the pleasure of his
kindly presence and support. I feel personally fortunate to have
met him and always enjoyed his enthusiasm and visits.
The Gold Basin meteorite strewnfield is one of the most
well-documented strewnfields known, because of Jim Kriegh and team's
care, patience, and perseverance. It is hard to imagine that it is
only one of many important contributions he made in his lifetime.
Jim was unusually humble! In addition to his many accomplishments,
he was extremely kind to all and very generous with his time,
samples, and expertise. He always had a smile, never stopped
learning, and had good will and gentle nature for all. He will be
greatly missed!
With sincere condolences to all who knew him,
Dolores H. Hill
Lunar & Planetary Laboratory
University of Arizona
