In a previous memory I mentioned going to the movies with Jim. Probably our favorite was The Magnificent Seven. We stayed to see it twice.

I'm the Steve that Butch mentions. The three of us hung around a lot when we were kids. I especially remember going to the movies, G&L Bowling alley, the carnivals at the corner of Chicago & Pulaski and St. Francis of Assissi Church. I saw him last around 1986. Jim was a fun guy. He made me laugh.

I spent a lot of time with Jim when he and his mother and grandmother moved to Walton Street down stairs from Steve Brusco around 1959. I have'nt seen him since about 1970, I moved out of state and could never find him, but I sure thought of him a lot and the crazy things we did as kids. I'll always have fond memories of Jim.
