Jim Kimberling, Oregon surveyor & engineer
I was sad to hear the news earlier this week that Jim Kimberling, PLS, PE of Vale, Oregon had died. I only met him about 6 years ago and saw him about once a year, but he left a lasting impression on me as not only a great guy but a very wise, professional, and skilled surveyor. One of those quiet non-assuming guys who, when they opine on something you make sure to listen because you’re going to learn something.
I had heard he retired early last year due to poor health, but I didn’t realize he was so ill.
My condolences go out to his family and friends. I wish I’d got to spend more time with him too.
