In Memoriam: James W. Moseley -- 1931-2012
By Gene Steinberg
I suppose Jim Moseley was my big brother. Yes, I did have a real brother, Wally, who’d be a little younger than Jim had he survived (he died suddenly, unexpectedly, in 1995). But Wally and I never talked much. Early on, he became a creature of the corporate world and lived in a different place.
But Jim and I talked all the time. I also helped him package and mail “Saucer News” (the forerunner of “Saucer Smear”), and assisted at his monthly lecture series in New York City. He became my first employer, as I worked for a time as the magazine’s Managing Editor, while juggling college-level studies. I remember it well, those weird working hours, since Jim didn’t come to the office until after noon, and we didn’t finish until the evening.
I left that little “home” in 1966, off to seek my fortune as a radio broadcaster, and to spend time with my lady. But Jim and I seldom stayed out of touch. When I started a new UFO/paranormal magazine in 1969, Jim was one of my first regular writers. In 2006, when The Paracast debuted, Jim was featured on the very first episode. He was always a special part of the show -- and a special part of my life.
Over the years, I watched Jim live his amazing life on his terms. He was fun to talk to, fun to argue with, and he faced everything with a twinkle in his eye, even the possibility that the end was near.
On Friday, Jim lost his battle with cancer and died at a Key West, FL hospital. Some say he is in a better place now, perhaps concocting yet more outrageous hoaxes with his pal Gray Barker on the other side.
Friday, I lost a brother, and the world grew colder.
Note: Please stay tuned for news of a special episode of The Paracast as we honor the memory of Jim Moseley.
Special Announcement: The Paracast is heard Sundays from 2:00 AM until 5:00 AM Central Time on the GCN Radio Network and affiliates around the USA, and online across the globe via download and on-demand streaming.
