Ginny and Jim are family for me. Growing up in the firehouse Jim was always there. "Santa" couldn't get by me with wearing his Giants watch and telling me how they were going to beat the Redskins the next time they met on the field. I knew right then it was Jim. He was always full of love and light. He will NEVER be forgotten. RIP Jim.

My Uncle Jimmy always appeared to me larger then life. He was generally laughing or trying to get those around him to laugh with him. My Mother and her "little" brother spoke of a closeness when they talked about each other that many never experience. I am sad for his passing of this World, but also know that in his passing he's reunited with many of those he cherished and who cherished him. Some of my most memorable memories are together with Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Ginny and their family. There were very few dull moments in their home. I miss our morning chats and his "checking" on me. I miss his smile the most.

As a young boy I grew up in a house with a mother who had mental breakdowns and was always seeking help or hospitalized. It was hard for my Dad to work, support his family, and take care of his wife. My Dad had a great friendship with Mr. Bien and when my mother’s episodes got to be too much him and Mrs. Bien would take me and my sister in and help watch us. They took us into their family and helped raise us as if we were their own kids. I have just as many memories of being at the Bien’s house as my own house. Thanks for showing us how to break the cycle of violence and sickness and helping to shape us into who we are today You will be missed Mr. Bien, love ya, miss ya, and I’ll see you on the high ground.
