Jim Hatch, the dapper dressing former photographer and Mac systems person, died in Los Angeles this morning, Monday, February 27, 2012. He had been
battling bladder and kidney cancer for about a year, and six months
ago it appeared he was doing much better. But he took a turn for the
worse about a month ago, and was in a lot of discomfort until the end.
Jim's wife, Marianne, will send some additional
information soon.
Two weeks she sent out an email with photos that he was going to start chemo Feb. 12
Jim and Marianne moved to California shortly after retiring from the PD in 2004 or 2005 to be near their daughter.
