"At his funeral we were informed that in true Zarathushti spirit, it was Jimmy's wish that his mortal remains be donated for research, so some unkown person or persons may see with his cornea, hear with his ear bone and save a limb or limbs with Jimmy's skin graft," writes California resident Rusi Sorabji in an e-mail to Parsiana.
