James Henry Diethorn
It was labor day weekend in 1986. The Atlanta Sky Hi Club, a social club for tall people, was having a weekend long party. One room at the hotel served as a dormitory for leftover men. There was a man staying there, watching TV late one night, and laughing vigorously. A big man, with a big laugh. This was Jim Diethorn.
As the nineties and the oughts went by, PG and Jim stayed in “the club.” Jim had a business installing business systems, and was frequently on the road. A few years ago, health issues took Jim out of the workplace, and we saw more of him. He took over the job of club President, and tried to flog some life into it. By this time it was too late. The times had passed the Atlanta Sky Hi club by.
The other day, Jim Diethorn passed away. There is one less cook in the world, one less man singing in church. He will be missed by everyone that knew him.
