    :arrowblack RIP Jim Hollis

    Jim Hollis past away yesterday in the Hospital. I think he was a young 82. Him and Bill Rennaker were good buddies. He wasn't much into cave diving, but he has been training divers for ages (literally) . He was a major supporter for cave diving and divers over the years; even this forum. He own over 7 dive shops from Orlando to Perry Florida, and once owned the River Rendezvous near Mayo, Florida. Jim was that smiling guy flipping burgers at Cave Excursion socials. Sincere condolences to his wife and family.

    Very sorry to hear this!! I spent many a weekend at River Rendevous back when we were mapping Peacock and later, Convict. Jim and Cheryl were great hosts! My condolences to the family.

    We used to stay at River Rendezvous all the time. Jim was such a nice guy.
