That signature crooked finger always in his wave as he would drive by me on the tractor, lives with me to this day. Such a kind man.

Sad to see such a strong man taken so young. One of my best friends when I was a teen and visited the Shea family during the summers. They were some of the happiest times of my life. Regretfully, I lost contact for many years. Jim was a hard worker and a dedicated smart farmer. I will miss him. Loretta and Joe will welcome him in heaven. God rest his soul.
