I was talking with Bridie today and she told me about your Dad.I was so sorry to hear of your loss.It is sad to me that,we are losing that entire generation. My earliest memory of Jim was when my Dad took me to the amphitheater and there was your Dad shoeing a horse.I was amazed.He seemed larger than life to me. And the last time I saw him was at John's house and he was working on a concrete job with John..what a man he was.
God Bless your families,Mary Ellen (Daly)Gallagher
