Hi Mary and all of Jimmy's family.
I was so sorry to hear that Jim passed away. He was such a buddy of Neddy's back when. Over the years Ned always had the best to say about Jimmy. Please accept my deepest sympathy.

Mr. Fahey,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served as a U.S. Army Paratrooper with the 82nd "All American" Airborne Division during the Korean War. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Airborne All The Way!
