Please accept my deepest sympathies I worked with Jim at the Wrigley company. I would see Jim at meeting and we always talked about trips to Florida and Disney World. He was a very nice man and he will be missed.

Jim was a dedicated family man,and Wrigley associate. I am happy I was able to work with Jim over the 30 years with Wrigley. My sympathy and prayers go out to Corrine and family.He became a dear friend, and always offered encouragement to those he touched.

Jim will be missed, but remembered for a long time as one of the kindest, professional individuals I have worked with at Wrigley.

I was always amazed at the dedication, inovation, and work ethic of Jim. I had the great experience to work with him and learn from him early on in my now 30 year Wrigley Career. Jim was an all around kind, good guy, who always spoke proudly of his wonderful family. He will be missed.

I have many fond memories of Mr. Hewitt; he was always a joy to be around. He had so many stories and was a great conversationalist and salesman. I feel very fortunate to have had the time to get to know him and his family. His son Kirk and I have many memories that we will both cherish of the times we spent with Jim. I remember one time in Disney when we stayed at the Wilderness Lodge and Jim saying get the refill cup from the store and remember to "Hit um' hard". Jim's way of saying get your moneys worth. Jim certainly had an interesting and busy life at one point he worked three jobs, delivering the Inquire with his wife, working at Wrigley' and delivering prescriptions for a local drug store. I will miss Jim.
