an emotional farewell for Erickson. “I cried; Jim didn’t,” she said later, laughing. For Jim, it was just the natural progression of things—people came, people went. “This is what you need to do,” he told her, “and we’re not going to lose touch.” They never did. “Jim always said that you are where you are because that’s where you need to be,” said Erickson, “and if you need to move on, you will move on.… He was not worried that people went off to do their own thing because he knew that other people were coming in. He felt it was really important to have fresh, new ideas.”
