John Hinant - President, Richmond Retired Firefighters Association
September 15, 2008
Please accept our deepest sympathies in the lost of your Father. Jim was a good Father and Firefighter as well as friend. Our hearts are heavy too. He was a member of the Greatest Generation, having served the United States during World War 2 and the Korean War, then later becoming a member of the Fire Department.
The members of the Richmond Retired Firefighters Association will truly miss our friend, brother and comrade who have gone ahead of us and will greet all of us one day.
