I have watched many videos on Jim LeRoy lately and this by far is my favorite. True, Tommy will not know his Dad but the videos (like this) will show Tommy what a great man Jim was and how much he was loved. Once again thank you. I know this came from your heart.

Jim could do things in an airplane that just can't be done. His skill and engineering created a show which can't be captured on video.
The last time I saw him, it was after an airshow and we were headed for the gate. We had met earlier that spring and he recognized me and stopped to talk a minute but had to leave because he was helping reunite a lost kid with his parents. That was Jim.
Soar high, Jim, and reach out to touch the face of God.

I still remember the last thing he and his wife told me before they left for a show. "Eat anything in the fridge you wan't, and Jim bought some beer just for you, in the back". I house /dog sat for them sometimes when they went to out of town shows.

Thank you all for the kind words.
I have been getting a lot of messages asking about the song. The song is "When You Come Back Down" by Nickel Creek.
