I was recently checking out the ITVS website and saw the
notice of Jim Yee's death. It saddened as well as surprised
me.
I worked at ITVS when it was located in St. Paul MN. There
are two things to come to mind when I think of Jim. I
always like Jim's sense of humor. It was hard to tell when
he was joking, he was "the straight man". He would walk up
to the receptionist area and make a statement, walk
away only to look back and crack alittle smile.
Jim had an aversion to suits and jackets. He was blue jean
type of person. He would keep a jacket, a tweed I think,
with elbow patches. He kept it in his office in case he had
to make a important meeting. This is what I immediately
liked about Jim when I interviewed for my job. I liked the
relaxed atmosphere he set with the office. I saw him being
a nonconformist and enjoyed my time working with him and the
rest of the ITVS staff from 1993-95.
Sincerely,
Angela Earl
