    Jim had a very special place in our hearts. Brian looked forward to their visits, sharing a bench in the foyer, chatting at ADC, and such. We loved him dearly and our saddened by his death.
    We also know he is at peace, at home.
    I love that we were able to share our Navy stories.

    Jim didn’t seem to know a stranger, he was always so friendly and had such a positive attitude. We only heard him say kind and thoughtful words; he was such a pleasure to be around.
