For those of you who knew him:
Jim Foley past away on Thursday. I was lucky enough to have worked with him at the Tampa NBC affiliate, (WFLA), back in the early 80’s. He moved to Boston and started freelancing and then returned to Florida where he was quite successful in the Orlando area with the NBA, Disney and others as regular clients. He was a great shooter and loved to laugh. I worked many jobs side by side with him from Shuttle launches to celebrity events, he always had a positive attitude. Jim was a friend to all. He will be missed.
