My condolences to the family. I grew up only a couple of blocks from the Fitzsimmons family. James was only a couple of years younger than I. I furnished Mary Ann weatherford a job at the Journal and Courier because I knew the family. James will be missed by me and Paul L. Robinson’s family. God’s Blessings to all.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
