I have a lot of great memories of Jim. For sure he was one of the most colorful members of the VFD. One of his greatest memories was when he and I were the only ones to answer the call for a car fire on the thruway and I operated the 2731 pumper/tanker truck while he put the fire out. About 4 times a year Jim would reach out to me and we’d spend a bit of time going over old times.
For sure I will miss his calls and friendship.
God bless those he left behind and always cherish the great memories he left us.
Rest well my friend.
