Jimmy Brogan was the shining example of what a loving, strong and decent human being is. We never can recall a time when his smile did not light up the room.. his voice, laughter and generosity will live on through all who knew him. Rest in Peace, (Uncle, Brother) Jimmy as the Angels carry you home. Our love to everyone at this difficult and sad time.
