But for those that knew James personally, now that the initial shock is beginning to wear off, his tragic demise hurts deep, deep inside. James Groves was a wonderful person to be with—he made you laugh and feel good. He often acted the clown, dispelling friends' problems with witty phrases or perhaps a joke. However, if you looked beyond the clowning, it was obvious that he truly cared about others. He was a good human being. We send our most sincere sympathies to James' friends and especially to his family, but Rice will feel sorry for itself for a long time. His absence will be profoundly felt, and the place in our hearts that he touched will never be filled. James, we miss you. EXPANDING THE HEDGES/by Chris Ekren
