This is terrible news... my condolences to his family and all his friends in the modeling community. He was a good friend... I knew him as James... I always enjoyed Friday night ship judging with him at the IPMS nationals.... going to miss seeing him there.
I have some sad news. Sunday, Jim Corley's wife called and let me know that he had suffered a stroke caused by an aneurysm and was terminal. IPMS Facebook has just announced that Jim has passed. I don't know what the plans are for Nautilus Models, but I just want to let everyone know that a great friend of ship modeling has gone, as well as someone whom I considered to be my brother. I will miss Jim and his contributions to this business, as well as the amazing SWAG's he always made. Goodbye old friend.
Jon
