Legit Reviews would like to send our most sincere condolences to the family of James Kim and please know that he will be missed in the tech industry.

Searchers were attempting to remove Kim's body, and his family members have requested that their privacy be respected, officials said. Kim walked into the snowy Oregon mountains Saturday to find help for his wife and two young daughters. They were rescued by searchers on Monday. Clothing and bits of an Oregon map turned up Tuesday in a steep canyon that drains into the Rogue River. Searchers said they believed he was marking his trail for them. The clothing, which was wet, included two gray sweat shirts, a red T-shirt, a sock and a blue girl's skirt, said Lt. Gregg Hastings of the Oregon State Patrol. Family members said Kim carried the items when he left.
