Administrators Horton Posted January 4, 2017 Administrators Share Posted January 4, 2017 I am extremely sad to announce the passing of James Salmas. I am not exactly sure what to say about Jim except that he was a very kind man who was like an uncle to me when I was a small child. I hope some of Jim's friends will share a memory.

Baller dbutcher Posted January 4, 2017 Baller Share Posted January 4, 2017 I didn't know Jim well, but I met him and his wife Thelma briefly in the mid 1980's. I followed their ski careers after that. They were always at the Nationals - for years and years - always competitive nationally in all three events (if memory serves me). I believe they were both as passionate about and dedicated to three event skiing as anyone could be. My condolences to his family and friends.

Baller Edbrazil Posted January 4, 2017 Baller Share Posted January 4, 2017 Jim and Thelma: neat people. At one time, they had a house near Okeeheelee, in the Banyan Lakes development. Jim had a self-created analemma at his doorstep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Edbrazil Posted January 4, 2017 Baller Share Posted January 4, 2017 One time record-holder a few times in M6, M8, M9, and M10. Of course, so was Thelma, who still holds some National Records going back as far as 1998. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
