Unfortunately it’s not great news we are sharing – but Slim’s condition has deteriorated a lot of the last few days. He is surrounded by his family and is comfortable.
I sat with him last week and helped with getting this Gofundme setup for him, his primary concern is that Ayu, Ray and Amanda have some support to help them though some difficult times ahead.
I know many of us have experienced Slim and Ayu’s hospitality. Any support and messages would be appreciated.

Saddened to hear the passing of a great friend and
a free spirit. Only reconnected in the last several months, having first met in the early 80’s.
Rest in peace. Condolences to his family.

So sorry to ready this. Jim, you are a legend. In the early 2000’s, my friends and I looked forward to your posts from seven thousand miles away in wave starved Florida. We’d oogle and talk about the spreads like an anticipated issue of Sports Illustrated. Back then, never did I imagine that I’d learn Bali from you and come to call you a friend. Your hospitality and sense of humor are unmatched.
Will continue to stop by, see Ketut and help how I can. May you rest in peace brother. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family.
