Husband, Dad, Grandpa

We miss you very much each day.

Your "Jim McEntee Legacy Art Project" is now finished both inside and outside at the James P. McEntee Plaza at the County Government Center. We hope that this "Gathering Place of Peace" will remind all of us to continue to follow your example to respect all persons, to work for the rights of all and to encourage peace and compassion among all communities and within our families.

We love you and we miss you.

Ann, your children, your grandchildren, and your great grandchildren.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Jim McEntee was, and is, an inspiration for me. I was blessed to know Jim during my long-term employment of 25+ years with the County of Santa Clara. Thank you, Jim, and God bless Ann and your family.
